Destination Truth
El Lobizon & El Pombero
S1 E6:
Having read news reports of a creature similar to a werewolf in Argentina, Josh heads to Buenos Aires to investigate El Lobizon. Like the werewolf, El Lobizon is a human who transmogrifies during a full moon but takes the form of a ferocious dog instead of wolf and the transformation reputedly can happen only to the seventh son in a family with all male children. Josh then visits a priest who has baptized hundreds of seventh sons who points Josh toward a few of these subjects and also directs Josh to a man who possesses DNA evidence in the form of a blood-caked rope allegedly used to lasso the creature. Josh buys the rope and sends it back to the U.S. for analysis. Josh then makes his way to a small village where the Lobizon has been seen recently and where Oman, an un-baptized seventh son, lives. That night he sets up surveillance cameras, raw meat as bait and positions Oman in a chair as the full moon rises over the horizon. Once Josh decides they have gathered all available evidence and they head back to Corri Entes to investigate sightings of another creature; a Dwarf-like creature called the Pombero.
