The Gigantopithecus is a giant ape that has received a huge amount of attention over the past few decades. This animal was the distant cousin of the orangutan. It is believed that the climate at the time of the Gigantopithecus' existence gave them the ability to adapt to freezing temperatures and adapt to climbing through very deep snow.
They probably study ancient primates, like gigantopithecus.
Gigantopithecus blackii - is the largest extinct primate species.
you must understand this is very subjective many sightings are made up but I and some scientists to think yes he or it is real it is most likely it is a freak of nature a creature which broke of from us and did not evolve one theory sugests gigantopithecus which is very likely if you look at the footprints some scientists found in the snow so it could be that gigantopithecus did not die out as we believe and or gigantopithecus evolved a bit and does no exist but is very rare. so yes I believe it does exist. sorry I did not give enough information but i am only 10.
There really isn't, except for the theory that Bigfoot is a guy in a gorilla suit (WHICH ISN'T TRUE, BIGFOOT LIVES!!!!)
This question calls for an opinion and opinions differ. Do not remove answers simply because you disagree with them.Mine is that it should be filed in the same category as the tooth fairy, vampires and werewolves. That is to say in fiction.Another answerOne of the theory is The Bigfoot-Giganto Theory (hypothesis). The subject of Gigantopithecus has attracted an increasing amount of interest anthropologists and primatologitsts over the past few decades. The Bigfoot-Giganto hypothesis suggests that bigfoots are surving relatives of the genus Gigantopithecus. Gigantopithecus (the Latin word for "Giant Ape") was a giant cousin of the orangutan. It was presumed to be extinct. That may sound like you theory more or less.
No one knows for sure weather the Yeti does exist or not though some people have reported seeing it in the himalyan range of Nepal.
Extinct animals in India include bharattherium, exaeretodon, gigantopithecus, hyperodapedon, and Indian aurochs. The first fossil of bharattherium was discovered in 1989 and published in 1997, but the animal was not named until 2007.
