Homo sapiens
The species is abundant and widely distributed; it faces no significant short-term risk.
Homo sapiens, commonly called the human being, person or man — the last of these in the sense of a rational being, with no distinction of sex — is a catarrhine primate of the hominid family, originally native to Africa, from where it later spread to the rest of the world. People collectively, or the human race, are also known by the general terms humans and humanity. Human beings have mental capacities that allow them to invent, to learn, to use complex linguistic structures, and to acquire and improve their logical, mathematical, writing and musical abilities, among others. Human beings are social animals, able to conceive, transmit and learn wholly abstract concepts.
