No, we're not really T'Pel's people but I thought this was interesting. The point on both of the mammals' ears above is called a Darwin's Point, once used to focus sound but no longer functioning on humans. A small percentage (10.4 %) of the human population still shows vestiges of this ancient node but probably more carry the gene for it. Go ahead, run to a mirror. Made ya look!
