This episode explores the mystery of the amarok, an ancient legend of a demon wolf said to inhabit the Alaskan wilderness. Investigators research the 2011 disappearance of a hunter near Denali Park, examining claims that a nine-foot-tall predator with both bear and wolf characteristics was responsible. The team interviews eyewitnesses and wildlife experts while debating whether the creature is a prehistoric survivor, a victim of genetic gigantism, or a supernatural entity. They conduct an overnight stakeout and discover unusual kill sites that defy the typical hunting patterns of local carnivores. Ultimately, the source highlights the tension between scientific explanations and the enduring power of tribal mythology in one of the world's most remote regions.
