"Bigfoot" hasn't been around for at least a couple hundred-thousand years, but we may possibly have some cultural or deep-rooted genetic memory of them.
Gigantopithicus isn't Bigfoot though
Why not?
Because gigatopithicus has evidence
Yes, it's just a silly leap I'm making to suit the point.
Bigfoot / Yeti / Sasquatch / etc has little or zero evidence at all.
Gigantopithecus' evidence was mostly gnawed away by giant porcupines. Go figure...
"Um... Can I see it?"
No, because Bigfoot isn't real lol. The guy who made the super-famous Bigfoot video, his son came out and said all kinds of stuff about his dad after he passed, and about the Bigfoot legend. Said he saw the suit, and said names of who was involved, and where they filmed it, and said he saw his dad burning the suit in a fire pit in the backyard
His son just wants to protect the remaining sasquatch, you can't fool me!

On October 20, 1967, Bigfoot enthusiast Roger Patterson and his partner Robert "Bob" Gimlin were filming a Bigfoot docudrama in an area called Bluff Creek in Northern California. The pair claimed they came upon a Bigfoot and filmed the encounter. The 59.5-second-long video, dubbed the Patterson-Gimlin film (PGF), has become iconic in popular culture and Bigfoot-related history and lore.

That's quite a surreptitious hike to do without being spotted.
There are reports from every state, including Hawaii.
Some obvious jokes, but somehow there are true believers across the continent.
The collapse of the Ohioan education system. News at eleven.
That is a regular footprint.
He's a sexual predator, FYI
