In the first new episode premiering this Friday @ 9:00 p.m. EST/PST, Josh Gates heads to the islands of Indonesia in search of the elusive orang pendek. With several local sightings, he is on a mission to find the ape-like hominid that may be inhabiting the forests of Sumatra.

Following @ 10;00 p.m. EST/PST is a second episode in which Josh sets his sights on two legendary creatures covered in West African folklore. He’s off to Gambia to investigate the ninki nanka, a reptilian creature that locals say resembles a dragon. Then, he heads into Gambia’s forests in search of the kikiyaon, a beast that’s been described as a mixture of human and bird.
