You wanted it – You got it. The Bigfoot episode of Missing in Alaska debuts on the History Channel this Friday @ 10pmEST/9pmCST! Are giant, relict hominids responsible for some of the missing people in Alaska? Tune in and judge for yourself!
Tales of Bigfoot sightings are reported globally but the Alaskan version is the most extreme, standing over 14 feet. Is this massive, aggressive creature targeting people in the Alaska Triangle? Cryptozoologist Ken Gerhard and team try to track down the beast, hoping to learn how this monster remains so elusive.

Glad it’s on history since I have Sling TV.
I know specimens from the same species get bigger the further they are from the equator – and vice-versa – but FOURTEEN FEET? There can’t be enough hours in the day to feed something of that size. Can there? It would literally have to eat every waking moment.
I know there’s been the odd Grizzly that size, but those Grizzlies don’t have to feed a complex primate brain.
