Bigfoot (running away from those trying to kill him) befriends a young Californian boy named Paul whose park ranger father is tracking an escaped tiger.

Writing the script became difficult for Yordan as he was told to cut out horror scenes and be restricted from adding any violence, profanity, or sex.

[5] Paul is a boy attending boarding school and is on a field trip with his class to the Natural History Museum.

Meanwhile, we find out that the sheriff who presides over the park is rallying people to hunt a mysterious large animal that mauled a deer.

This includes Will and his Indian friend Jim (played by a white guy in redface makeup that the costume designer occasionally forgets to apply).

The strange man introduces himself as Morgan, a big game hunter the sheriff hired to hunt the large animal.

The four of them travel through the park to hunt the animal and find a strange ruin filled with crumpled up Coke cans, at which point Paul’s Bigfoot amulet starts glowing orange.

The four of them track the tiger to a rocky pass, at which point Will tells Jim to take Paul back to school because he’s concerned the hunt has gotten too dangerous.

Paul repeatedly tries to run away from Jim, and they reach a lake where they meet an Indian elder named Red Crow (played by another white guy) who has a pet eagle.

They all regroup and chase the tiger, who has fled to an old abandoned Western mining town that exists in the park for some reason.

Paul, Will, Helen and Jim enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner, and they reunite the baby raccoons with their mother, who takes them away into the wild.

[11] Paste's Jim Vorel, on the other hand, ranked it as the second best episode of season eleven, behind Wizards of the Lost Kingdom.
