Yes, but why did they not survive, if we are at the very top and all animals other animals are below us, it stands to reason what we evolved from should also have survived. I never said anything about being the fittest, if they were close to our intelligence it should mean they too should survive. They would still be more intelligent than other species, they should be able to out wit their predators, and adapt to their enviroment.
