A family living in rural Turkey possesses a unique trait--they walk on all fours. Scientists are intrigued by these people, and researcher Uner Tan created a controversy in 2005 by claiming they were "genetic throwbacks." But other scientists reject that notion as insulting and instead search for a different cause. The program will air on PBS this Tuesday at 8pm. PBS has a program description and preview.
