Gigantopithecus is an extinct genus of ape. Many believe that this creature exists today as Bigfoot. It is believed that the Gigantopithecus could have entered into what is the now the United States over the Bering Straight land bridge. This is in the northwestern portion of North America where Bigfoot is most commonly spotted. Gigantopithecus is speculated to have not been bipedal, but this is only based on fossils of teeth and a few jaw bones found. No other fossils are known to exist.
