An Anomalous Anthropoid

This just in from Dr. Karl Shuker, a new article on a deeply strange anthropoid.

Karl says:

“In an ongoing occasional series, previous ShukerNature posts have documented a number of once- and still-controversial forms of chimpanzee…None, however, is as bizarre as this series’ latest example – the little-known yet truly extraordinary spiny-backed chimpanzee reported from the Democratic Republic of Congo. The only information concerning this anomalous anthropoid currently known to me is a short account that appeared in Philippe Coudray’s self-illustrated book Guide des Animaux Cachés (2009).”
