In the 70’s there were several other flicks that somewhat followed this concept, if you will. One of note was a low budget 1970 film titled TROG with Joan Crawford, gasping her last it seemed. The film bio blurb is on IMDB.com. The Trogs were cave dwellers, multiplied quickly, were discovered, captured and harnessed by a nasty, profiteering person into a work force where they were rewarded with cans of…

wait for it…

SPAM!

I saw it years ago on a Drive-In triple feature, quite laughable. Anyway, in the plot, a ’scientist’ takes an ‘interest’ in one of the female Trogs and, well, the inevitable happens. A reverse of the topic here but still close enough for a film comparison of the original concept. Other porn knock-offs using Ski Bums in Pink BF/Ape suits and gals on the slopes leaves little to figure out, recent CableTV offerings have included porno plotlines reflective of ‘The Planet of the Apes’ and other old chestnuts involving Simians and us, whoever we are this week.

Others will no doubt recall films having similar concepts, Mother Nature fills in the gaps where we don’t, it could happen…or not.

Interesting to note that similar experiments were supposed to have taken place in china in the 50’s I think.

So that’s Bf (or perhaps, the skunk-ape- after all the Yerkes Centre opened in Orange Park, Florida, in the 1930’s) and the various chinese wildmen/yeti beasties cleared up…

I agree in general, with what both you and Dogu4 have said. However, as I suggested, there certainly is (anecdotal) evidence of apes sexually attacking humans (and while there clearly are evolved biological mechanisms that make such biologically useless interspecies sexual activity unlikely, they clearly are not infallible). Without more details of these claimed events, and the contexts (i.e., do they involve human-reared apes, etc), it is hard to be sure how relevant they might be here.

I guess I was just saying that if BF was reasonably closely related to us then sexual encounters, at least of this kind might have occurred and was interested to know if anyone had heard of any such reports. Although, I can imagine that even if they ever did they would not be reported. And even if they were, you can imagine what kind of coverage they would get, and what kind of newspaper they would end up in? And thus, how much credibility they would be seen to have? I know I wouldn’t take seriously a ‘I was raped by BF’ story in the Daily Sport.

I guess the only even comparatively relevant story is that of the Alma, Zana (captured, and apparently producing six children with a human husband)- but, even if true, that clearly involves a very different species than the North American BF.

(Incidentally, I’m afraid that there is -or so I’ve been told by a primatologist- evidence of humans sexually abusing apes- in particular, human derived sexual diseases are sometimes found in apes freed from captive situations).
