"If Bigfoot is a primate?" Please tell us the smartest of all the primates. Ask BSC and bradleygator if needed.
You've introduced an anomaly. I'm curious.
Its always been assumed that Bigfoot is a primate. The size is the problem. We are the tallest of all primates at an average of 1.8 meters. Humans are the smartest of the great apes, but if you look at the others, the common chimpanzee, the orangutan and the Gorilla in terms of teeth you're find a marked difference. We have pitiful little fingernails and pitiful little teeth. The reason we can maintain this size and have so little protection against predators is brain capacity. So, in terms of evolution where did an 8-13 foot great ape come from? We know one such ape live alongside humans in China 10 million years ago but it died in the last Ice Age ten thousand years ago.
There is also the problem of new world versus old world monkeys. There are no new world monkeys in North America. All great apes reside in South Asia or Africa. If Bigfoot were to exist in Northwest America/Canada then we would have to have proof that great apes crossed the land bridge. Apes don't do well in cold. Ask Gigantopithicus.
I love the idea of Bigfoot, I do, but there's some big hoops that have to be jumped through if he's a primate.
