Are you ready to face “Monster Encounters”?

Host Casey Anderson waiting for bear to show up, as seen on Travel Channel’s Finding Beast.

Watch out!  Wildlife expert Casey Anderson is never afraid to get dangerously close to the largest and fiercest creatures on Earth as you will discover on Travel Channel’s new series “Monster Encounters,” premiering on Tuesday, October 30 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.  

Anderson’s mission is to track down and document evidence of animals so large, or unusual, that they defy belief in the eyes of most every viewer.

Using the latest technologies along with his lifetime of wildlife experience, Anderson will travel to some of the most remote corners of Earth in search of elusive creatures.  He leaves no stone unturned, collecting clues and connecting the dots until he gets up-close and personal with the beasts he seeks.

“I traveled to some of the earth’s most inaccessible regions. My daily commute to work put me on the back of elephants, in acrobatic helicopters, or on a ride in a speed boat along rivers in the middle of nowhere,” said Anderson. “I found myself in places with names like ‘Devil’s Cave,’ ‘The Elephant Graveyard’ and ‘The Death Road.’ I was attacked repeatedly by a massive crocodile in the Zambezi River, wrestled a giant anaconda in the Amazon and was bitten and feasted upon by a vampire bat in Mexico—and this is just the first season.”

The premiere episode will air shortly before Halloween when Anderson heads to Mexico to learn if vampire bats are attacking humans. He goes directly to the source at some of Mexico’s cattle ranches and caves. Will he risk his own safety to become the prey in his hunt for a mega-colony of bloodsucking bats?    

Upcoming episodes include:

 “Man-Eating Tigers” – Premieres Tuesday, November 6 at 10 p.m. ET/PT

When national parks report man-eating tigers attacking local villagers, Casey Anderson heads to Nepal to lead a search for rogue cats. By elephant back, raft and on foot, Anderson moves into the killing zone to track the man-killers.

 “Killer Croc” – Premieres Tuesday, November 13 at 10 p.m. ET/PT

Following reports that a renegade giant man-eating crocodile named Bizmark is terrorizing the Zambezi River, Casey Anderson heads to Zimbabwe and Zambia to launch an investigation. Working with local crocodile experts, he meets with witnesses and heads far downriver toward Lake Kariba, ground zero for crocodile attacks. Anderson puts his own life at risk as he goes into a custom-built crocodile cage to try and trap the fierce reptile. 

“Mauling Marsupial” –Premieres Tuesday, November 20 at 10 p.m. ET/PT

Spurred by reports that a presumably extinct predator may still be alive, Casey Anderson heads to Australia to investigate mysterious sightings and attacks by a marsupial lion. But as Anderson heads deep into the wilderness, he finds that the evidence points to another possible mystery.

 Casey Anderson is a wildlife expert, filmmaker, adventurer and explorer. He has spent the last 24 years traveling the world, capturing wildlife and nature through the camera lens. Born and raised in Montana, Anderson spent his childhood exploring the vast wilderness that was literally in his back yard. Photographing and videoing his adventures was a way for Anderson to provide his outrageous accounts in the wild to his classmates. By the age of 18, he found himself guiding wildlife filmmakers into remote locations to track and film the most elusive wild animals. At age 26, Anderson adopted an orphaned baby grizzly bear, which led him to co-found the Montana Grizzly Encounter – a sanctuary for grizzly bears saved from inhumane situations.
