Orang Pendek

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 accounts, 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 elongated digits, as with typical orangutans. It is usually described as having red hair and an orangutan-like appearance.
