Nothing to see here folks. These people have obviously mistaken John Kerry for a new species of Ape

I can answer that in two words. The second word is "no". For the first word, use your imagination.

That would put them in the size category of gorillas - but the region lies 500km from the edges of the known habitats of the western and eastern species of gorilla. The creature's face is gorilla-like and has a sagittal crest - a long bony ridge - that is typical of gorillas. But other aspects of the skull morphology are that of a chimpanzee, according to Colin Groves, an expert at the Australian National University in Canberra. At the risk of sounding risque', does anyone know if Magilla Gorilla has been lookin for love on the Chimp side of the tracks?

Gigantopithecus blacki
was a species of giant primate that lived in SE Asia. Not much is known about them. The area isn't great for fossil formation. From what has been found, paleontologists have extrapolated a height of roughly 3 meters and a weight of ~500 kg. It lived up until about 400,000 years ago. There's some thought that it may be the origin of the Bigfoot and Yeti tales, assuming that they really survived until a later date than 400,000 years ago. (Long enough to have been observed by early humans.)
This creature is being described as 2 meters tall and only 100 kg. That's rather lanky for an ape. I wonder if there's a typo in the story.

I just did a search.
But you can find where any pic comes from by right clicking on the pic and then clicking "properties". Just cut and paste the addy (stopping after the .com) and you'll go right to the originating website.
