Are there any hypotheses that posit that the different human races, or maybe a lost hominid ancestor were, basically, heavily related to regional animal species? This presupposes pangensis. To be clearer: I think that different human groups evolved from different animals over an immense time span. For example, it is pretty obvious that southeast asians are like fish. Euros are like wolves and bears. SSAs clearly apes etc etc. I know, I know .... but, has this ever been considered?
