    So what I’m hearing is they can literally talk to each other in a way that we do and we still kill them constantly.

      We kill humans constantly too, and we probably obliterated the rest of the hominins also. I’m just saying we have a chequered track record.

        I guess, but it feels to me like wiping out a species close to our intelligence is worse that killing each other.
