I was just blocked here for explaining some important things about meganthropis(krantz) and gigantopithicus blacki(meldrum).

Both Krantz and meldrum worked at universities.

Their prime field of research is a subject blacklisted by academia.

Neither considered bigfoot to be a hominid.

Even meldrum with the advantage of scientific evidence(dna) could not except bigfoot as a homind.

Which is especially telling since hominids are the only bipedal apes on the planet.

Both meldrum(gigantopithicus) and krantz(meganthropus) had theoretical skulls made from a bone frangment. Krantz(meganthropus) had a skull cap.

Thats it.

Everything else was made up.

No teeth, no jaw, no braincase, no eyebrow and especially no spinal cord hole in the bottom or back of the skull.

This is the only way if you have a skull.

Of course there are other was of you have those parts.

The bipedal foot, legs, hip, ribcage and spinal cord are different than a quadrapedal ape.

The same goes for meldrum(gigantopithicus) who ignored real science(dna) to heavily promote his asian ape theory with a partial lower mandible and a couple of additional teeth.

There is no way with either entity to determine either was bipedal instead of what would be normal for a warm weather jungle dwelling vegitation eating ape.

They would likely be like the gorrila.

Quadrapedal and never traveled far.

Didnt need to.

Big vegitarians need to chew most of their awake time to consume enough vegitation to survive.

There were no long bipedal treks in the sevanna searching for food.

Bipedalism developed in hominids to travel long distances efficiently searching for food.

Bipedalism only occured in old world apes in Africa and is 6.2 million years old.

Giganto lived in its form in the humid jungles of south china 100,000 years ago.

Bigfoot already had adapted to the cold with a bipedal foot and traversed the bering land bridge into north america by 165,000 years ago.

A quadrapedal vegetarian ape living in the humid jungle didnt 1 day decide to eat meat, walk on 2 legs, go north into the cold and travel 1000's upon 1000's of miles looking for food without any vegitation to sustain its travels.

The gorrila hasnt traveled out of the jungle.

There is nothing else about the gigantopithicus story that puts it into north america.

There was only 1 cold weather ape.

Hominids.

Apes are not adapted to life outside the jungle.

Also remember large apes all sleep at night.

They would have poor night vision.

Any ape living in the north of asia would have to forage in the dark for 6 moths out of the year.

Large apes eat soft jungle vegetation not found outside the jungle.

All the time wasted on gigantopithicus and meganthropis could have been used to identify the real bigfoot ancestor.

1) homo neanderthal; they have been found all over frigid europe and 3 caves in Russia at latitutes nearly equal to the bering land bridge.

2) homo antesessor; believed to be 1 of the first hominids gojng into europe and adapting to the cold.

3) homo hiedlebergensis; one of the biggest hominids and evolved in colder climates.

4) homo denisovan; found in russia only hundreds of miles from the bering land bridge.

5) homo longi. Located in china, it had large eyes obviously for night vision. Bery robust.

6) homo erectus; was on the scene first leaving africa first 1.8 million years ago.

It usually stuck to warmer weather but could have been the ancestor to any or all of the cold weather hominids.

At any rate all these hominids ate meat, evolved in the cold, and foraged long distances bipedally.

They usually lived in larger groups than the apes.

The trek across the bering land bridge was probably made in groups.

A recent dig in san diego discovered a hominid site dated to 130,000 years ago.

All homo sapien sites had piles of flakes or the act of flaking present.

This flaking was a constant sharpening of tools.

While the site was definately hominid it had no flaking piles.

So another hominid made it to north america first.

It could be any of the ones i listed above or another hominid better built for the cold.

Make no mistake it was a hominid not a vegitarian ape that traveled through ice and snow without food for 1000's of miles.

Meganthropus was found further south in the tropics with zero chance of wondering into the north.

Both these quadrapedal apes were manufactured into something else because neither krantz or meldrum could jepordize their carrers in academia with the truth.

The results of the dna in 2013 indicated bigfoot had human mitochondria dna from 13,500 years ago.

This seems to be the reason bigfoot is blacklisted in science.

The most interesting thing is science has millions of anthropigists.

They make their life the study of hominid bones. Most of the bones they study in their field are of wild hominids.

They have learned alot from the bones.

However they have learned about their subjects locomotion.

Their body porportions are different than ours. Likely designed for a different environment. Humans use a 17° trailing leg angle.

We pogo over a locked knee and our heels land under the shoulder.

Bigfoot, while being a biped has a different gait.

They use a mid tarsal break in their foot that allows most of the foot to stay planted even at a 52° trailing leg angle before the foward step which comes foward and outaround the other leg which is directly under the body.

In my opinion this is key to navagating the snow and icey ground.

This is further proof of a cold northern evolution.

This took many 100's of thousands of years to evolve.

Recently while watch a thinker thunker video investigation, i observed him putting a neanderthal skeleton into the picture to show that bigoot and neanderthals have the same body ratios.

I wonder does neanderthal haveca flat foitcandxa mid tarsal break?.

What is the dna connection between bigfoot and neanderthals?.

Is bigfoot just the far north version of the neanderthal?.

These are the questions that science/ academia should be answering, not making up some bipedal ape theory out of thin air.

As a former graduate student and teaching assistant of Dr. Krantz, I have to disagree with you.

Dr. Grover Krantz dedicated much of his career to the study of the Bigfoot phenomenon.

He believed that Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch, was a relict hominine species rather than an ape.

Krantz argued that the creature exhibited many human-like characteristics, such as bipedal locomotion, a large brain, and an ability to use tools.

He based his conclusions on the examination of footprint casts, eyewitness accounts, and other evidence he collected over the years.

Krantz firmly believed that Bigfoot belonged to the taxonomic group Hominidae, which includes humans, great apes, and their close relatives.
