Paul Rosalie himself says "un contacted" is not the right way to describe them. They are most likely remnants of the huge populations that existed there before white people
His adventurous spirit may seem admirable but Forrest Galante is a PARACHUTE SCIENTIST! This is a term referring to people who go to Third World countries, and promise to fund local scientists and use the expertise of the local scientists to piggyback a discovery only to cut off all communication and aid once a discovery has been made, and claim the discovery for themselves. Any of the animals that he has claimed to have rediscovered either we’re never considered extinct, rediscovered by other people that forest stole the credit from, or were never rediscovered by Forrest or anybody else (Zanzibar leopard as an example). This practice does more harm than good as it shifts the attention away from the people who actually do conservation in the areas where these animals are endangered, and makes it harder for these people to get funding for their real conservation efforts. Please! More people need to call this man out!
I listen to an unhealthy number of podcasts from all types of people and topics and can confidently say Forrest is my favorite guest out of everyone ive listened to. It doesn’t matter the host or the questions he always nails it!

I spent several months out in the woods, with bare minimum equipment, eg no tent etc. I found I naturally woke up half an hour prior to sunrise. Mainly due to the sounds of the forest. Then sleeping wasn't an issue but the rain, would slow me down, but I had to be aware of the effect to my core temperature, due to poor shelter at times. Living with nature will change your perspective of self, nature and the value of humanity.
The Bro-ologist is always such an inspiration!! Well done Jordan. Incredible interview with one of the most important conservationists of the modern age.
@@JordanHarbingerShow He makes it hard not to love him. Hell one of the main reasons I write his podcast jingles is to tell my kids in ten years that I helped him become who we all know he will be. Please keep doing what you're doing buddy. You're also EXTREMELY important, especially at this point in history. I have full faith that you end up in the first few chapters of a lot of people's books.
As a home school mom I can tell you first hand with actual experimentation. A kid who is allowed to sleep until he/she is done. And then doesn't do school until early afternoon learns way better and way faster!!!
@@TravelWithBradleydont know if it has anything to do with it or not but I never had to start school early growing up. Did really well with my studdies but I'm 36 now and I've always struggled so so much to get up early. I'm definitely not lazy but I never had to make myself get up early as a kid and it became a huge problem when I started working so I still wish it was something I got used to doing young
Aye right,my mum would have the bed clothes off she would pour milk in cornflakes after she woke you up, if you didn't get up soggy breakfast, ping was the video game, but this is worse, fcuk right wing politics
Thats true if the body is laid flat...........however if its on its side then they have a much easyer task. I forget where i learned this but it is real.
As a teacher and past student (obviously), I've always said school should start later in the day. At least secondary school so parents' schedules could continue as is.
To really appreciate that letter, and that specific moment, try putting yourself in that position...you think you maybe dying, but you don't want to worry anybody, especially your wife and kid/kids...so you decide to write a letter, then go to sleep hoping to wake up in a few hours... That in itself is enough to choke an elephant.. I can only imagine what words were in that note, I mean what would you write.
My one sons principle in High School agreed with me that boys in puberty dont get alert till 10:00 so he let my son start School later. My son graduated plus got into a music program and won a Scholarship. Its refreshing to meet open minded Teachers and Principles who look into such Research and Honour parents input instead of beating everyone over the head with curriculums.
So, the two Orcas that have been decimating the sharks are known as "Port" and "Starboard". It's pretty crazy how murderous they are. There are some good videos here on RU-vid about them. Just in case anyone was curious.
I believe the "announcement" he is referencing coming at the end of the year is that Colossal have found a site for their Dodo! While there's no timetable for the Dodo's physical arrival, the company will be working with Mauritius Wildlife Foundation and the local government in Mauritius!
Agreed 1000% on sleep. 10am would be normal for a school start time. Instead the kids are forced to follow adults work schedule. Keeping “the system” intact.
He talks about the Saola horns like it's so unique; Sad Oryx noises, but not the Scimitar Horned Oryx. . Saying that, hopefully the Saola is not extinct and since it's rare it may be able to breed in captivity and reintroduced to protected lands, like the Arabian Oryx.
As one of those old farts you mentioned, I happen to agree with you on sleep. Not going to bag on you for being who you are. We are all different with different needs when it comes to sleep, diet, etc etc. Live in the way that works for you
been a fan of forrest for awhile, but this is my first time watching this podcast. Gotta say im a big fan of how unafraid this guy is to admit his ignorance. in podcasts anymore it seems like theres alot of people who try to be experts in everything, so its not seeing people openly saying "i dont know" or "i have very limited knowledge of this subject solely based on pop culture". Forrest is pretty good about this too, whenever a subject comes up hes not versed in, if he gives his opinion, hes the first to say hes not for sure and to take his words with a grain of salt.
Back in the 70s I saw the biggest snake.. i was born in the southern part of the Philippines.. we live inside a logging company compound up a side of mountain with the back of our home was a dark jungle and the front was a cliff overlooking the ocean.. we had a lot of chickens back then and they roost at night up a jackfruit tree at the back of our house.. one late evening we started hearing a lot clucking and wings flapping about so our houseboy went to check it out.. he came back screaming about a big snake swallowing one of our chickens.. we called the compound security who then shot the snake and dragged it out.. it was so long and huge that when they loaded it at the back of their pickup truck a large part of snake's tail was dragging behind it.. they had a feast that weekend with that snake..
Yup. The same reason office jobs don't really do anything until after lunch. Its so stupid. Most of my life, i worked physical labor , landscape and irrigation, steel plant, ect.. When i got a job as rep for a medical supply company, i was astounded at the waste of time in the office. We would have these stupid meetings first thing in the morning, that had no point. I was looking at the time thinking like "i have to be in another state in two hours, lets wrap this up". The days that i stuck around the office (happened a lot after an injury), i realized that they actually worked about two hours out if the day. Of course, they would handle issues as they arose, but for the most part, after the "meeting", they would hang out until lunch, then do some work, then they would start to wind down for quiting time. Anyway, the whole thing blew my mind. I asked my wife about it, and she said that it was pretty much the same at her work.
Man’s just let him breeze past the fact he said we kinda speak orca tf you mean kinda, dawg I want an explanation and estimation on how long til I can ride them mfs
Interesting talk at the very beginning. There is really something to it. In the area I live in, the high school students start school first, then middle school, then elementary school. Researchers have known for a long time that it should be the opposite. The only excuse I have seen has something to do with sports. This is madness.
Most animals and humans hunt in the early morning hours. I ancestors had to be vigilant and on guard in the early mornings from attack from man and beast. It’s important to start waking early at a young age to get accustomed to waking early to work and be productive.
Have you seen the research on how different generations are alert at different times in order to protect the settlement? For example, teenagers stay up late while everyone else is asleep, and elders wake up very early. Overall, there was always someone awake to warn the settlement of potential dangers.
Lol I love how you mention why it was important for our ancestors to wake up early, and then your conclusion is that it’s important for modern people to wake early. Seems like the implication is that because our ancestors had to worry about being hunted by predators or people in the morning, you should too?
@@davehughes53You have the DUMBEST most ridiculous logic I've heard in a long time kiddo! Not many jobs require you to be up early these days so no it's most certainly not needed
Omg in Canada the research is overwhelming and schools has been reluctant to start later despite much great success in some who have but it’s a current issue up for change.
I have slept naturally after Hurricane Katrina,,,, no power for 2 months, no job the first 3 weeks after Katrina ( i was a cab driver,,,, so I would sleep 11:00pm till 9/10:00 pm,,,, no pressure, no humming noise coming from everything…it was hot. But I didn’t have problems falling asleep.
Love Forrest, a very interesting guy who's had one of the craziest life's. He's proved animals declared extinct, not to be so. And he's proved how mentally crazy he is 😂 survived naked & afraid, has done hundreds of expeditions if not thousands actually.. and he's ones of the very few who have the "il go see for myself" mentality, rather than making his observations & opinions behind a screen.. and never actually going into the field.. Definitely watch his pod if you don't already, it's called The Wild Times. It's all based around animals, but they do cool segments like Extinct or Alive , or an animal battle royale, in where they pick three parts of the animals & though it's not real.. it is fun and super refreshing. Because you have the humour & interest from these other things they do , for me it meant I found myself watching way more than I intended too & I've stuck around😊
41:43 I was thinking of eDNA just before he said that. He focus on water. I heard of getting it through the air. A zoo somewhere did that for studies. Didnt find every animal in the zoo but did discover a rare wild animal (cant remember name but think it was like a gopher type animal) that wasnt in the zoo! So instead of putting a camera up to hopefully something runs in front of. Set the eDNA thing up and dont really have to get that close to find. Super excited about eDNA tech! Goes from hopefully something runs in to this (trying to calculate game cam footage trigger zone) idk say (i cant calculate so throw numbers ) 100 square foot, or yards even exaggerated but dont matter, to they were withing a square mile from here. Way better coverage...
Florida schools now start late for high school. The sports teams have practice before school. It's cooler to play hard outside. And those not playing sports can sleep better.
Don’t think humans with sticks killed all the Mammoths. I’m more leaning toward the Younger Dryas Impact hypothesis as time goes on as so many apex animals in North America were also wiped out. Sabertooths, Giant Short Faced Bear, Giant Ground Sloths, etc. All pushed to extinction
Good point about unintended consequences. Feral horses are a tremendous ecosystem disruptor for the American west, and they were only gone from N.A. about 10000 years.
22:55 As a michigan resident, i can assure you it wouldnt have killed him. i didnt even know we had snakes, but literally nothing up here kills you besides a small selection of top of the food-chain wildlife. that or the god awful drivers on 21 mile road
School was never about making you smart or anything. Even universities dont do that. Its to make you a good worker ant. Doesnt matter how awake you are. Whats matters is that you are here and doing s
I have ADHD I could not do mornings at all When that sun's a little bit past the middle of the sky and it's not so damn bright and hot That's the best time Get out do your stuff while there's still bit of sunlight out Then you get home for dinner cook out something for dinner Bit of a nighthawk myself
The whole reintroduction of mammoths into the arctic tundra again will be an interesting experiment and I’d love seeing those back. But the idea that it’ll somehow restore the entire habitat type and prevent climate change is unfortunately just wrong. Humans did not hunt mammoths and the other European and American megafauna to extinction and cause a habitat catastrophe that then resulted in melting of the ice caps, massive global warming, and end of the Ice Age. Humans are powerful and potentially destructive but we weren’t THAT powerful 11,000-13,000 years ago. The “Overkill Hypothesis” is wrong, it’s simply not possible for small numbers of roving hunter gatherers to kill THAT many mammoths across ALL of Europe, Siberia, and North America, let alone the shortfaced bears, American Lions, Sabertoothed Cats, etc. There’s more and more mounting evidence for cataclysm, whether comet/meteor strikes and/or massive solar events, being responsible for ending the last Ice Age, melting the ice sheets, causing catastrophic megafloods, habitat destruction, etc. and all of that being what caused the extinction of all those megafaunal species as well as significantly reducing human populations globally. All that said, I still want to see the mammoth’s brought back. That’ll be super cool!
I grew up in Australia & regarding the highly venomous coral snake which is red, yellow & black, but there's a false one that has same colours, but in different sequence. The Aborigines have a saying that goes something like 'red & yella kill a fella.....' & I can't remember the last part of the saying ( maybe somebody will know ). A good thing....if one can remember it to tell the difference.
In the states we say, “Red touches yellow, he can kill a fellow. Red touches black you can Pat him on the back.” Because the nonvenomous king snake is also red, yellow, and black just in a different order. Though personally I just recommend leaving them all alone.
Not sure about the starting school at 10 idea is an evolutionary thing. When I am engaged in remote wilderness hiking .... especially in hot climates - you go to sleep when it's dark (7-8pm) and therefore start waking up at dawn - or before. I know for sure, our ancestors would have woken up at dawn ... thats when all the birds and animals are up and about - good for hunting and gathering, especially in hot climates. Teenage neanderthals might have actually been middle-aged. Thanks though interesting interview.
Me from age 25-31 present day i actually revel in getting uo at like 4:30-5:00 on weekdays and especially weekends. Just like one week i kept getting uo at 5 and never stopped lol
