Millennia after an evolving human species descended from the trees, 30-year-old Joshua reversed the process, removing himself from the gene pool while perched in a tree.

Joshua had hiked several miles onto a ranch and climbed a Koa tree under cover of darkness, intent upon stealing a branch of the expensive native hardwood.

To his credit, he was smarter than a classic cartoon character, and didn’t make the mistake of cutting the branch supporting him.
