The brand new series on Destination America called "Killing Bigfoot" begins Saturday, February 4th. Louisiana Veteran Jim Lansdale will star in this episode that kicks off what looks like an exciting new series.

Here is the episode description from destinationamerica.com

The team is called away to Louisiana, where new evidence has been unearthed following an alleged Bigfoot hit and run: a tiny primate-like skull with teeth, which they send to a DNA lab for testing. Several locals have reported seeing a small orangutan-like creature and hearing monkey-like sounds near the woods. GCBRO organize a night hunt during which they have a frightening close-encounter and then possibly capture footage of Bigfoot itself.

I couldn't find a whole lot of info about exactly where in Louisiana the episode will take place, but I did see some information saying it's around the Sabine River area.

Jim Lansdale is an experianced researcher in the field and has been pursuing Bigfoot for several decades. He is one of the founders of the GCBRO, Gulf Coast Bigfoot Research Organization, and is incredibly passionate about studying Bigfoot
