Gigantopithecus was the name for a huge ape that once existed in southern asia in the Pleistocene. It is commonly approved that the Gigantopithecus genus has two species: G.giganteus and G.blacki, the last of which seems to be the bigger one.

At 3 metres tall, it seems to be a veritable king kong, and might actually exist now, as proposed by Grover Krantz. Bigfoot, Yeti, Sasquatch, the Yowie, the Skunk ape, and the Orang Pendek might all be the survivors.

The picture below clearly shows a strange apelike creature quite similar to an orang-utan, but much bigger, with an estimated arm length of 5 ft! If that is true, then the only animal known to fit the description would be Gigantopithecus Blacki.

Also of great interest is the Dover demon, a humanoid sighted in 1977 near Dover. It seems to have been an alien, with bulging eyes and short legs. A image of the beast was largely disputed, but some experts remain convinced that the animal shown is an extraterrestrial.

Ever heard of a strange animal called the Honey Island Swamp Monster?

It also seems to be an extraterrestrial, being extremely fast. Eyewitnesses describe it as being covered with grass, corresponding to the swamp habitat in which it lives, and usually attacks boars, although will attack humans if provoked.

In 1963, a few witnesses took this picture following a discovery of 20 decapitated boars. It appears to show a small monkey like creature

Again, the existence of this cryptid is a big if, but if it is genuine, then the Honey Island Swamp will be visited by crowds, like with Lake Loch Ness.

The best proof we have of Bigfoot to this day is the famous Patterson-Gimlin film, which clearly shows a huge, fur covered animal stride by, glance over her right shoulder, and then turn towards the woods. Many people think of this footage as genuine and the best proof there is, although some experts, including Bernard Heuvelmans, have big questions.

Although most are easily countered with simple film observations, one remains. Since Bigfoot has a horde of doubters, they have arguments. Their best one is the fact why, despite a lot of searching, no one has ever found a positively identified body or body part. The counterargument is that in places like the Pacific Northwest, and especially in rainy places, it is extremely hard for fossils to form, so that might be the reason.

The only positively identified yeti hand comes from the Pangboche Monastery in the Himalayas, which was identified as a mixture of human and ape.

Of course, one more monster is worth mentioning: The Pukehina Predator
