http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bili_Ape

These apes are large Chimpanzees, almost Gorilla sized! The ones deeper in the forests show no fear of man, and crowd around people in curiosity!

Amazing! Read the article on wikipedia!

That's an interesting one. Seems they are having a bit of trouble classifying this ape. The arbitrary nature of taxonomy and classification makes it a continuous struggle to concisely classify it. Interesting nonetheless. One wonders why they nest on the ground rather than in the trees predominantly. Maybe their imposing size is off-putting to predators?

The link "Gallery"which you provided Desperado, doesn't seem to link to anything.
Wow. That is a huge ape.
