"....he inferred that they probably came from cave deposits. Since the Giganto teeth were mixed in with middle-Pleistocene elephant and panda fossils, von Koenigswald estimated their age at 125,000 to 700,000 years."

How do teeth at least 125,000 years old from an UNKNOWN animal provide "evidence" of "Big Foot" roaming about today?

Hell, that's less evidence than Nyfong had to persecute the Duke lacrosse team!

Gigantopithecus blacki is a recognized species. It was in my anthropology text books in college back in the early 1970s. It was a huge, 10 foot tall ape, that lived than half a million years ago. There is no way of knowing from the fossils whether it walked on it's knuckles like a gorilla or walked upright like we do. But we do know that it existed at one time. All you have to do is think of the possibility of it not becoming extinct and still living in remote forests today.
