Plot Synopsis

Professor Bryan Sykes, Head of Genetics at Oxford University, joins up with veterinarian and biologist Mark Evans to examine the legend of Bigfoot, using DNA testing to determine if he's a hominid, an ape or just a hoax. In each 60-minute episode, Evans travels to a different part of the world to find evidence, including: the Himalayas to find the real story behind the centuries-old Yeti legend; America's Pacific Northwest in search of Sasquatch; and Russia in search of Almasty, that country's very own Bigfoot. Nat Geo aired the U.S. premiere of this series on Friday, January 10, 2014 at 7pm ET/PT, showing all three episodes back to back from 7-10pm ET/PT on the same night.
