Kong what is his real name is a giant ape monster created by Russell Blackford that first appeared in the 2005 ibooks novel, Kong Reborn.
Origins
After the original Kong's blood was discovered on the side of the Empire State Building in 1999, some of it was sold to Jack Denham on the black market, and in January of 2004, efforts began to clone the monster. Unfortunately, only about 70% of his genome was able to be reconstructed, so the gaps were filled in with Bonobo DNA, and DNA belonging to a young male gorilla named Leonardo from the Bronx Zoo, and the blood cells were inserted into ova from his surrogate mother, a gorilla named Matthilde.
History
Kong Reborn
After the blood cells were accepted by Matthilde's ova, eleven of the twelve succeeded without any of the defects typical in primate cloning. Three were selected to be implanted into Matthilde, but only two attached, and the more robust of the two was chosen to keep on while the other was terminated. Kong gestated within Matthilde from November of 2004 until March of 2005, when the fetus was removed because he was getting too big for Matthilde to deliver. He was placed in a kind of tiny "space suit" for transfer and was placed into the artificial womb, where he grew for the next year until they felt he could safely survive on the outside. He was finally born in March of 2006.
