Homo sapiens (Human) is a species of primates in the family Hominidae. They are native to The Neotropics, the Palearctic, Oceania continent (Australia, NZ and islands), The Nearctic, Asia, and Ethiopia. They are diurnal omnivores. Individuals are known to live for 1470 months. They have parental care (cooperative breeding, paternal care, and female provides care).

initial mortality rate
- URI: http://eol.org/schema/terms/InitialMortalityRate
- Definition: The initial mortality rate (IMR) represents the mortality rate independently of the ageing process. Though there are different methods, the IMR is typically estimated from the mortality rate prior to its exponential increase with age, which can be obtained from the mortality curve (by looking at the baseline mortality prior to its exponential increase) or, for mice, by using t = 0.25 in the Gompertz equation.
