Naked Science: Is this the Amazon’s Bigfoot?

Naked Science writes “The last Ground Sloth became extinct over 10,000 years ago. Now one man is risking his reputation and his livelihood to prove that the beast still exists, deep in the jungles of the Amazon.

David Oren, Head of Natural History at the Goeldi Museum in Brazil, has interviewed scores of people who all claim to have seen a large bear-like animal with a monkey face. But he needs hard evidence in order to convince the skeptical scientific world.

This documentary follows him as he journeys to the Nevada desert, the banks of the Tapajos and into the heart of the rainforest, accompanied by arch sceptic and paleontologist Greg MacDonald.”
