gigantopithecus
fact filegigantopithecus grew 9.8 feet tall and weighed 1.190 lbs. it had orange fur and was part of the ape family and is the largest ape to ever live but it didn't swing in the trees because it was to big so it walked like a gorilla. gigantopithecus was incredibly strong and could pick up large animals and throw them around like a rag doll and it was fast to and was very scary towards early humans. their habitat was said to be forests and maybe mountains which made people believe it was the yeti. They had powerful teeth like most primates but they manly ate stuff like bamboo and large bits of vegetation and people are not sure if they where carnivorous or not. but they where dangerous and could kill apex predators like big cats.
