		pongid: a member of the Pongidae such as chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans.
		Their teeth were hominid-like, with reduced canines and incisors and thick enamel coating the molars.
		They may represent a lineage that led to the orangutan, separating from the pongids 13 to 17 Mya.

	NASI Report: Toward a Resolution of the Bigfoot Phenomenon (part 3)
		If the subject is pongid, and not hominid, the bipedalism may be the result of convergent evolution.
		was pongid, which, if it is the fossil record of the Bigfoot phenomenon, suggests that Bigfoot is pongid.
		Morphological comparisons derived from the Patterson-Gimlin film are in agreement with this and suggest that Bigfoot is related to the mountain gorilla and is therefore pongid.

		(1) At what point during the process of human evolution from the common pongid ancestor did such unusually large groups (and hence language) evolve?
		The fossil evidence (see Aiello and Dean 1990) suggests that brain size increased exponentially through time within the hominid lineage, being well within the pongid range for the Australopithecus species and not showing a marked increase until the appearance of Homo sapiens.
		This would tend to suggest that neocortex sizes are unlikely to have been sufficiently large to push the grooming time requirement through the critical threshold at about 25-30% of the time budget until quite late in hominid evolution.

	Books for Cryptozoology
		The book begins with an introduction that describes some background information as to how the authors came to this startling conclusion.
		It also includes descriptions of the natural history and appearance of their nine different types: neo-giant, true giant, marked hominid, neandertaloid, erectus hominid, proto-pygmy, unknown pongid, giant monkey, and merbeing.
		The core of the book is comprised of one-page summaries about different mystery primates from around the world, with an illustration of the creature on the facing page.
