Deep in the rainforest of Congo, Africa, it is said that a population of apes with enormous body sizes and extremely barbaric behavior dominates there.

Known as the Bondo gibbon or Bili gibbon, many locals have reported seeing this mysterious creature with their own eyes.

They believe that they are a very ferocious animal, famous for being able to kill lions.

Shocking reports about the Bondo ape have been circulating for decades.

One of the first scientific attempts to track down this mysterious ape was made in 1996 by Karl Ammann, a Swiss photographer and conservationist in Kenya.

On these skulls there is a prominent ridge in the middle like the skull of a gorilla.

Ammann therefore suspected that this could be a completely new species and ventured to the northern region of the Democratic Republic of Congo to find out.

What’s even scarier is that these strange beasts are also said to make howling sounds during the full moon.

Although Ammann’s trip collected some information such as some extremely large chimpanzee droppings and footprints larger than those of gorillas, in reality Ammann still did not collect any conclusive evidence.

Another of the attempts to identify this mysterious ape took place in the summers of 2002 and 2003. One of the researchers on the expedition was Dr. Shelly Williams, who is believed to have returned from the expedition.

`They are a very large animal, their faces are flatter and longer and straighter than those of gorillas. They will gather 2 to 3 individuals to nest together on the ground, while

However, in the years that followed, people suspected these bold claims were fabrications.

As reported by New Scientist in 2006, Hicks argued that they were almost certainly not a new species of ape or even a new subspecies, but simply an interesting population of chimpanzees.

However, Hicks’ research shows that the chimpanzee population in Bili is quite unusual.

As for the claims about eating lions and walking on two legs, those claims have never been verified.
