A second season of Sasquatch University is now airing on Wild TV with bigfoot hunters, Ryan Willis, Joel Porter and Ben Blanc, having spent time in Haliburton County again this past year. good summer of filming. It was a lot of fun.”
Willis said, “it was great. We had another good summer of filming. It was a lot of fun.”

“We got more people reaching out about encounters, and we met with them, and He added they spent most of season “We got more people reaching out about encounters, and we met with them, and filmed investigations,” he said.
He added they spent most of season two closer to Haliburton, Algonquin Highlands, Muskoka, north of Muskoka, and in Algonquin Park.
e relates how they were contacted He relates how they were contacted by a man in Haliburton who owns a “huge” property and, “it was really cool talking with him, because he was telling us about how he had an encounter out in the middle of (his land).
“It’s a lot cooler for us when it’s a big property because you wonder, when it’s close to a town, why would (a sasquatch) be here? Did they see something else? When it’s out there and there’s no way it’s another person, there’s no one out there. There’s no trails. The man has to canoe in when he goes. He was a very good witness. He’s been there awhile. He’s seen bears. He’s seen moose. He’s seen everything out there and there’s no way it’s another person, trails. The man has to canoe in when he goes. He was a very good witness. He’s been there awhile. He’s seen bears. He’s seen moose. He’s seen everything out there that you get in Haliburton. There’s no way he made a mistake.” The man said he saw an eight-foot-tall, hairy sasquatch, “all the typical things you get in a description of a bigfoot,” Willis said.
The bigfoot hunter added other people reached out from Algonquin Highlands and the Haliburton-Muskoka area. “Algonquin Highlands and Haliburton are two of my favourites,” he said of sasquatch investigations the team does. He recalled another witness from the Highlands, whose family had been on their property since the late 1800s, “and they’d been seeing white ones probably every 20 or 30 years, but he saw a brown one.”
While the team has yet to spy its own sasquatch in the wild, Willis said they do receive video and audio from the public and, “it’s great when people reach out and they have, not just a really good story, but video evidence to go along, too.”
He conceded they get some strange calls.
They always pre-screen by doing a phone interview with the person before attending their property. “Do they sound all over the place? We had one guy, who, mid-call said, “I find dead bodies all the time … are you guys FBI?’ We have found the odd criminal. A lot of other people are very nice so we go and, luckily, they often turn out to be great.” He said if they are staying overnight somewhere, he always tells his mom to call the police if he is not back by a certain time.
He recalled how, “someone suggested they research, ‘is the war between Russia and Ukraine affecting the sasquatch population there?’ We assumed the guy was joking.”
Willis added, “a lot of good, regular people contact us and have no reason to lie or make something up. They could be on TV for five minutes with their neighbours asking, ‘is he crazy?’ There are more reasons for witnesses not to talk.”
That said, none of the evidence to date has categorically proven a sasquatch. Willis said they would continue to do their work until they find one.
“It’s the only way to end the show. We want a live one, the real thing, in the flesh. Until then, the show must go on.”
Willis said season two is six episodes, compared to season one’s 13. “We stuck to a lot of the tried and true areas. Just another great year, so I am excited for people to check it out and see what they think.”
