Skunk Ape of the Southern United States

You’ve heard of the Yeti. You’ve heard of Bigfoot. But have you heard of the Skunk Ape, their 400lb, dumpster-diving, southern cryptic cousin?

”Physically, The Skunk Ape has more in common with chimpanzees and orangutans than other versions of Bigfoot. It is leaner, shorter, and more ape-like than a Sasquatch, though some witnesses report a creature standing over seven feet tall and weighing an estimated 400 lbs. The hair that covers its body is long and coarse and it quickly moves through the wild with an attentive, scanning nature. Some witnesses compare the Skunk Ape to a hunched over “crack-head” or an animal infected with rabies.”
