South American Man-Beasts (Brazil)

Neo-tropical ape-men

Strange primates photographed in Brazil. They look like gibbons to me. Having worked with shed loads of the noisy buggers and seen them in the wild i recognize the stance and outline. Gibbons however are Asian so these would have to be escapees.

I always thought Gibbons were not keen to move on the ground?

I don't think they look bulky enough.

They are not in the wild, only coming down in times of drought. In captivity they will spends much more time on the ground though.

Hmm if you compare them both they are pretty close

The image i posted is an blow up of the image on the left which, in my opinion heavily resembles the image of the chimp walking upright i posted.

Which, with respect, is why the image looks like dog****.

Blowing it up only complicates matters if the image is already poor quality.

As we can't interrogate an original image here, I wonder whether anything might be gleaned from respective sizes and distances.

How do people still take photos of such poor quality in 2021?

Gibbons don't knuckle walk, they have a strange, mincing, upright gait.

Why do I keep reading this thread title as South American Man Breasts?
