Precisely. And just because sasquatches walk like us, talk like us, have feet like ours, but don't utilize fire or tools doesn't mean they aren't a human species. Quote ..........Humans are primates, it’s not a myth............ Yup. And sasquatches might be a human species, regardless of their shy behaviors and lack of tool/fire use.

But the title and the short review I did read leads me to that point of view. I could be completely wrong. So I believe he would hold the opinion that humans are not related to Bigfoot, Gorillas, Chimps, Orangs nor monkeys or lemurs. No primates. My personal opinion is that Bigfoot as a biped primate would be more closely related to humans than any other species on Earth. I could be wrong. Maybe American monkeys gave rise to their own biped primate? Or maybe orangutans and it walked across a land bridge? Anything is possible. But how scientists classify a Bigfoot? Is it Gigantopethicus Blacki? A Homo Neanderthalis? An Australopithecus Afarensis? All bipeds presumably. But not all human. That’s above my pay grade.🤷♂️ We won’t know until a body is discovered.

His primary position is that chimps are not like us (and vice versa) even though we're so close genetically. We're more like wolves and cetaceans in social behavior, and I agree.

We are like Chimps in some ways. Google the Gombe Chimp war. Not many species fight total wars over years. We both do. But of course there are differences as well. Neanderthal DNA in modern humans has been linked to Autism. Autistic people don't like crowds, loud noises, being touched, etc. https://news.clemson.edu/study-implicates-neanderthal-dna-in-autism-susceptibility/
