"Ameranthropoides loysi"

Unread post by bobby777888 »

saw this in a book at school and have only just found it on the internet. The book doesnt suggest that the photo was a hoax.

There were apparently stories of a "devil" or something attacking natives in the area.. very weird.

Here are the links to an article about the creature

and to an article about the guy who shot it

De Loys' Ape... Interesting story. This topic has been discussed a few times Bobby, I think you'll find some old forum conversations on the subject.

I can't remember what happened to the body...
