A Yeti?

Yes. Bigfoot researchers think Bigfoot/Yeti and Gigantopithecus are one and the same - that the species never actually died out. I guess we'll find out some day.

Gorillas should not wear stripes. Accentuates the waistline.

Never mind Bigfoot...
I think that several live in the trailer across the street.
Dwarf version with some coloration changes.
Or possibly these may just be the last of the Neandertals that we just thought were extinct??

The new movie is going to suck. They took the same plot from the 70's version where Fay Wray falls in love with the ape and tries to save him. Hollywood A-holes. This kills the whole movie idea.

"Bigfoot/Yeti and Gigantopithecus are one and the same"

Or Bigfoot could be a halfbreed. I doubt if prehistoric people argued very much if one of these things wanted to mate with them.

See how big he is? That’s why those natives had to build that big wall so he couldn’t get over it

But what was the reason for the giant door that’s conveniently his size?
