Ape-man

A small ape-like man is said to inhabit the mountains of Sumatra. The "little man", or orang pendek, has been sighted for centuries, but so far, proof has been elusive. Researchers are placing cameras throughout the forests hoping for photographic evidence, while purported hairs and footprints from the creatures are analyzed by experts. The story of the British "Pilkdown man", perhaps the greatest missing link fraud ever perpetrated, is also told.
