They meet with one woman who claims that the creature attacked her goat and killed it. The team examines the remains of the goat and finds that there is a wound on the neck that looks like it was made by a hyena.

Josh and his team then decide to set up camera traps in the area where the creature was sighted. They spend several nights in the Gambia, hoping to catch a glimpse of the creature on their cameras.

Towards the end of the episode, the team finally captures footage of the creature on their camera trap. The footage is grainy and hard to see, but they are able to identify the creature as a hyena. They also find footprints in the area that match those of a hyena.

The episode ends with Josh and his team concluding that the creature responsible for the attacks in The Gambia is most likely a hyena.
