"The newly-discovered region, named the endorestiform nucleus, is located within the inferior cerebellar peduncle, an area that
integrates sensory and motor information to refine our posture, balance and fine motor movements.
Professor Paxinos suspected its existence three decades ago but has only now been able to see it due to better staining and imaging techniques.
“The endorestiform nucleus is intriguing because it seems to be absent in the rhesus monkey and other animals that we have studied,” Professor Paxinos said.
“This region could be what makes humans unique besides our larger brain size.”
“I can only guess as to its function, but given the part of the brain where it has been found, it might be involved in fine motor control,” he added."

Well, it's because you are not a/or related to a rhesus monkey - but were created distinct and unique from the animal kingdom....And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion... Genesis 1:26
