Animal Plant Explores CORWIN´S QUEST: REALM OF THE YETI - Search For Abominable Snowman

In CORWIN´S QUEST: REALM OF THE YETI, Animal Planet´s Jeff Corwin joins an elite team of top scientists on an adventurous mission to search out new animal species in one of the most mysterious regions on earth.

This region of Nepal is a remote and unexplored area of the Himalayas, in the shadow of the highest mountains in the world. Under Mount EverestÕs looming presence, Jeff encounters the area´s diverse and exotic wildlife much of which has never been captured on film.

Jeff also meets the locals, hears their stories and sees evidence of the creature called "the protector of the mountains." Real or imagined, the Yeti has a profound conservation influence where huge swathes of land are left untouched because the locals believe the Yeti resides in their depths.

CORWIN´S QUEST: REALM OF THE YETI Premieres Saturday, April 15 at 8:00 pm (ET/PT) On Animal Planet.
