This is a submission for the Anatomically Correct Series
The orang pendek is a cryptid that reportedly inhabits remote, mountainous forests on the island of Sumatra (likely evolving from orangutans) and are depicted as:
- being 150cm (4.9ft) tall
- have proportionately longer arms
- are covered in orange-reddish brown hair
- have surprisingly humanoid looking faces
- being bipedal
Given these characteristics what evolutionary pressures would lead to such a being?
NOTE: magic does not exist in my story
