There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Curiously enough Edgar Wallace  placed his gigantic fictional ape King Kong in South East Asia exactly in the area long ago inhabited by the gigantopitechus. True, King Kong is 30 m tall not 3 m and looks like African gorilla not like Asian apes, most probably giganto belonged to subfamily Ponginae so was probably closer to modern orangutan, but actualy nobody could say with certainty. Neverthelles in every legend  stay some core of truth and suprisingly in the legend of King Kong also stay some truth.
Why Edgar Wallace placed Kong in South East Asia - coincidence, intuition of a genious or he really new about the gigantic prehistoric apes don't know.
