An Anomalous Anthropoid
Posted by: Nick Redfern on March 20th, 2013
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).”

Shades of Chupacabras. It’s encouraging that there’s still so much we don’t know about our own planet.
This reminded me of this from years ago.
This is promising. Like they said above, Chupacabras. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if somehow this was what Madelyne Tolentino saw.
There’s enough variation in the primates for me to check the Wait and See box on this one.
