the theoritical dispersion of ape men

my best guess as to how the ape men type creatures such as sasquatch and the yeti moved nd evolved throughout history

1. species most lickely seperated from the african/ asian ape families,
2. established in asia moved became gigantopithicus
3. moved to higher elvations and became the yeti
4. locaalized species occured in china, the yeren
5. some moved up to europe through russia, possibly became extinct due to lack of modern day sightings
6. some moved to indonesdian islands (possibly by land drift, swiming or crude boats), island dwarfisim occurs, orang pendek emerges
7.moves to north america through land bridge, sasquatch arrives
8. moves throughout noeth america, localized sub species such as skun ape, old yellow top, pitt lake giant and other occur.
9. arrives in south america, groups such as ucumar occur
10. indonesian species arrives in australia size than increases and yowie evolves.
my best guess as to how they got around

Is that a question or a statement?? I don't understand ...

its a theory, but for some reason it got posted before i could finish it, so now its up

How did it get from Indonesia to Australia?

i can only guess thta it could have gotten there the same way early humans got there, by building crude boats (possibly swiming but the distance seems to long to me anyways, but they have found bears swiming from mainland british columbia to vancover but the distance is much less, so not completly impossible

land bridges could hvae formed as well

ive dome some checking and there are hundreds of small islands between asia, indonesia and austrailia. A big, muscular type animal, such as one related to the yeti could possibly be able to even swim between them and account for the orang pendek and yowie

If yetis/sasquatches where so widespread shouldnt we know they excist for a fact today? or as you say those that moved further to europe got extinct but why? and why did they not leave any traces?

when you consdier how widespread species have become and stayed hidden. as for no evidence, creatures like chimpanzees and gorillas have actualy had very little evidence of them dicovered on the fossil record and very few bodies, so for all we know there could be evidence we havent found.
