Beasts of the Bayou: Loch Ness Swamp

Posted by: Craig Woolheater on July 17th, 2014

Last week’s episode of Beasts of the Bayou re airs today.

Airing today, July 17 at 3/2 PM ET/PT on Discovery Channel.

In the first episode, the two teams explore the legend of the Altie. Short for Altamaha-ha, this Loch Ness monster-like creature is rumored to stalk the waterways of the southeast. More recently, it is thought to have migrated into the bayous of Louisiana, accused of frightening a vacationing family that was out on jet skis. Blimp and his crew are on the case, determined to prove once and for all the existence (or lack thereof) of the Altie. Meanwhile, scientists from Tulane University believe there is a more logical explanation surrounding these hauntings, a giant Alligator Gar Fish perhaps? It’s scientific evidence vs. Cajun know-how, as each group searches for answers in the waters of the bayou.

Local fishermen from Venice, Louisiana are searching the bayou for “The Altie”… A Loch Ness type river monster thought to be lurking in the swamps and marshes. But researchers from Tulane University think people are seeing a giant alligator gar fish.
