The
Orang Pendek or
Orang Pendak is supposedly an unclassified species of
primate similar to the
orangutan that inhabits remote regions of the island of
Sumatra. According to acounts, this species differs from the orangutan only in that it is fully bipedal. The only evidence to be found so far have been foot prints and dubious tissue samples. The foot prints are different from all other bigfoot tracks in that they are more primate like, with splayed and enlongated digits, as with typical orangutans. It is usually described as having red hair and an orangutan-like apearance.
