While the show has proven to be of sufficient popularity for continued hope for its end, the status of its production is on hold pending network decisions. Please check Discovery\u2019s webpage, the cast\u2019s social media (such as Mireya Mayor and Bryce Johnson), and other official sources of information for updates. Fans have been able to help by creating pressure on group forums. All clickbait-style videos referring to the \u201ccancellation\u201d or \u201chorrific incident\u201d are based on false information.<\/p>\n
No announcements have yet been made by the Discovery Channel, Travel Channel or the cast regarding a renewal, nor have any reveal\/trailer or filming start dates for the next season been given by those studios. Season 6 (which is 8 total episodes) premiered on the Discovery Channel in late January of 2025 and culminated in the finale entitled \u201cTarget Identified\u201d, whose air date was approximately March 12, 2025. Neither the official Discovery Channel website nor the official Travel Channel website lists beyond the most recent episode airing in season (Season 6) \u2013 these databases do not show an upcoming\/renewed series for either channel.<\/p>\n
There is currently no announcement for a premiere date for Season 7, but there have been rumours of possible air dates (e.g., August 2025 or August 14\/18, 2025) which were denied by members of the cast (eg, Dr. Mireya Mayor) through social media (noting these are false or due to confusion with other shows).<\/p>\n
Many fans and fan websites are speculating that if the show is renewed and filming of Season 7 happens soon, then the winter\/spring of 2026 (February \u2013 April) will be a likely timeframe for air. This speculation is based on the time it typically takes between seasons, which is normally around 10 \u2013 14 months, and how quickly the show finishes its post-production work (usually 1 \u2013 2 months between finishing filming and the show airing).<\/p>\n
As of today, the status of the show is up in the air as there were corporate mergers at Discovery\/WBD (sales and budget changes that changed how unscripted programming gets made), causing the show to not have a confirmed renewal at this point, but there are ongoing discussions regarding a new season. The cast has continued to communicate that the show has not been cancelled.<\/p>\n
Currently, no plot or synopsis exists for Season 7. However, Season 6 had several expeditions to areas, such as Washington\u2019s backcountry and \u201cThe Fork\u201d \u2013 a possible breeding\/migratory area for Bigfoot. Many pieces of evidence were collected while on these expeditions, including the presence of tree structures, howls, heat signatures that indicate family units\/nest locations, and multiple secessionist sightings of Sasquatches and \u201cpredator calls.\u201d<\/p>\n
The continuation of a scientific and survivalist approach will likely occur in Season 7. Similar to Seasons 1-6, Season 7 has relied upon technology (drones, thermal imaging, audio lures, and trail cameras) to find and gather evidence of Sasquatch families and breeding grounds, built upon the leads found in high-traffic areas in the Pacific Northwest and California. Empirical evidence is the primary focus of the program.<\/p>\n
The core team is expected to return with no announced departures or major additions:<\/p>\n
Occasional returns or cameos from earlier members like Ronny LeBlanc are possible but not confirmed. The cast has been vocal at events and online that they\u2019re ready to go back into the field pending network approval.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
