The given statement is false. 

Humans are mammals due to the presence of mammary glands and hairy skin. Thus, they belong to the class Mammalia.

Since humans are pentadactyl (five fingers and toes in both forelimbs and hindlimbs), have stereoscopic vision (colour and binocular vision), and rotating shoulder joints, they are placed in the order Primata along with gorillas, chimpanzees, and orangutans. 

Thus, the correct statement is "Humans belong to the class Mammalia and order Primata.
