The Brutal Endings Of These Four Extinct Animals 

Burning an entire island just to kill some wolves that you think are killing your livestock has to be one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard, I wonder how many unique species of plants and animals became extinct just from that single event

The idea that we possibly brought ancient species of dog to an island, that remembered us instinctively as friendly only to get stabbed in the back pisses me off more than anything else humanity has done

The fate of the Falklands wolf is so tragic, a true savage barbarity has been done upon them.

That last Falkland wolf being shot by a chance encounter with a hunter really burns me up. Like, everyone KNEW there weren’t any around and one guy was like, “THERE IT IS YHE LAST ONE!” BANG! What a bunch of fucking assholes

"The animal was friendly and showed no fear of people" many such cases

“Welp, this is depressing.” -Me during the entire video

Damn the poor island doggies story is just sad

We had a chance to become friends with seals and we F it up we could have had sea dogs 😂

The history of the Falkland Wolf is incredibly depressing and aggravating. Some people are just absolutely awful to animals for literally no valid reason and it pisses me off so much. Even moreso with how needlessly cruel people were to the wolves. Also doesnt help that it reminds me of what people do to current North American wolves.

i just don’t understand how man can see an animal that shows zero aggression and decide to betray its trust and kill it

I think it’s extremely immoral and savage to kill a friendly and trusting animal that just comes up to you

I read somewhere that if animals could draw or write, humans would be depicted as their demons/devil. This video leaves no doubt as to why.

Well humanity better hope aliens never come visit us and do the exacte same thing to us.

The Thylacine had the same fate as the Falkland wolf. Only they were reclusive and avoided people. But still hunted to extinction.

Using fire to cull wolves "We did it Patrick, we saved the city"

Using friendliness as trap, is a dark cruelty. If a person are met with a friendly animal and immediately reason "I can use this to kill it", are just sick.

Went in expecting fascinating stories of animals that once roamed the earth, came out absolutely livid. Peak humanity right here

That drunk dude story at the end is so scary, all the stuff people can do if not thinking straight...

Humans impact of nature is actually depressing because we just saw a lot of these animals as products/resources rather than living things..

The falkland wolf could have been an awesome pet. Damn

The Quagga is a tragic story it's similar to what happen to the cape Lion's unfortunate demise

How drunk do you have to be to jump a dear, thats wild

The baiji (yangtze river dolphin) deserves more attention and I'd be glad if you did a video on it. In any case, I really enjoy your video and channel and this was a well-done video. I was surprised i learned so much

I'm from Canada. My dad owns a property in Fort Lauderdale. When visiting my dads neighbours were circulating a petition to eliminate all lizards in Fort Lauderdale. I mean ALL of them. When I asked the neighbour why, the women exclaimed,. "They're pests that sh*t on our decks". We witnessed maybe 3 small poops from lizards in the 10 days we were there. People are disgusting.

This episode just made me hate humans more. People are just so cruel to some of the friendliest animals.

If time travel is permitted, the first thing we do is save these poor animals from extinction

Thanks! Another excellent episode. You won't run out of topics I've known for th last 30'ish years we were in a mass extinction period. And it already has a name...

I wish we could have had seals in the Caribbean and Florida. Im from Florida and i never knew they existed.

A wild docile animal is one that has not yet encountered man.

Thanks for depressing my Saturday... but in all seriousness great video!

Moral of some stories, humans suck

the last story is crazy

Never knew about the Falkland Wolf. Great video of a sad subject.

Being one of the first westerners to describe a species =/= being one of the first people to discover a species. Humans have lived within the range of Okapis and Bongos for like 100,000 years, I am confident that they were discovered in prehistory.

“We don’t know why he killed the deer, possibly because he thought it was wild” WTF is he going around killing random deer even if they are wild?!

Great video! I can also think of Père David's Deer and Great Auk, both sad stories too.

I love this channel , every upload is very interesting and informative

DO NOT REPORT IT! If you see an endangered or “thought to be extinct” animal. Because thats a sure fire way to seal its doom.

Keep up the great work lad.

The Falkland wolf sounded so sweet. I feel like domestication could have been possible but people never bothered. I wish they did they look so cute.

Another excellent video! Thanks!

I wouldn't rule out the possibility that the Falkland islands wolf was descended from a domesticated animal. It's plausible that the Falklands Island wolf was descended from domesticated animals, even if that theory is mostly disregarded since it separated from Dusicyon avus around the time of the last ice age. South American native tribes domesticated a native canid that's believed to have been the culpeo. DNA testing showed it was closer to the culpeo than the domestic dog, although it still wasn't a perfect match--which could lend some credence to the idea that it was a related species, but not the same. After all, domestic dogs are still genetically wolves. The South American tribes also had another, larger type of domestic dog that may or may not have been native. There were also ancient South American people who seem to have domesticated the fox-like canid Dusicyon avus, a relative of the Falklands island wolf within the same genus--and the Falklands islands wolf is believed to have descended from Dusicyon avus. If the larger South American domestic canid was Dusicyon avus, rather than a domestic dog descendant, it would have mapped well with the size of the Falklands island wolf.

Great video. I'll check out some of your other videos

Love the video! Awesome 👏🔥

good vidioe like always keep it up brother

Nice vid!

Please put all your videos in 1 big playlist! Love falling alseep to your content

Extinction is a weird way of spelling human intervention lmao

16:13 Ummm WTH is that ENORMOUS skull looking thing behind the Men ??? 😮

the quagga is so cool

I've seen you use a few different cover Fotos, the one used now, around the time of posting, I think is very good 👍

It is just sad knowing that we killed so many species animals because we were selfish,greedy and had no empathy truly a tragedy

Couldn’t finish this, too sad for me

The fact that all this happened because of hunters and not other animals is just sad

Kindness = A weakness to exploit. A sad fate for so many beautiful animals

The quagga may have left us, but at least we can make zonkeys

earth is so beautiful yet the world is so ugly, can't help but feel disgust for what we are

This video is... so depressing. :(

So sad. I live in Florida, and it makes my heart hurt knowing we used to have seals here. Such a shame.

These stories are perfect example of human greed and how hunters are NOT Conservationist

I think you made a mistake You said Christopher Columbus discovered them on his second voyage But you said the seals were hunted in the 14th century - the 15th century The 14th century is 1300-1399

God I hate how cruel humanity bruh :(

Nice video♥️

You did NOT have to put in the Peter Parker and Tony Stark scene 😭😭✋

Humans that drive these wondrous animals to extinction out of petty fear and stupid hatred are so disgusting to me, that I'm embarrassed that I'm part of the same species.

Humans prove time and time again that as a species they aren’t the most intelligent but the least harmonious

if so many recently lost species were lost specifically to overhunting, i wonder if some of them could now be cloned and slowly reintroduced to their habitat

Love your channels, love your videos, keep up the great work! I have a video suggestion… Based on what we know of brain size, behavior, etc. what animal was the most intelligent during each time period of animal evolution? Like, Anthropocene and Holocene would be humans, Cretaceous is maybe troodontids, Paleogene is probably some kind of bird, and so on (I’m out of order, but that’s just because this is about as far as I’ve thought this idea out lol) I thought up this idea watching your last video about extinct animals Native Americans encountered when you were talking about the smilodon being thought to be similar in intelligence to extant big cats. Since big cats evolved before humans, there might have been a time on earth when felines were more intelligent than the smartest primates. But then cetaceans have been around for a while and seem to have been similar throughout the years, so the first whales might have been in fact the most intelligent animals on the planet well before other the brains of mammal lineages developed to the levels that they are today. I hope that idea is as interesting to you as it as to me!

This video just proves that there are docile creatures that die to man's cruelty.

Wow , this was depressing

Iam on one hand proud of our quagga in our historical museum, it is rly beautyfull. But then I remember what happen and I feel tears of anger. Of my bucketwishlist, its in the top 10, see this animal free running in his lands. Dr. I need your tardis....

as someone born and raised in florida, i have never been so devastated knowing that we used to have a seal species native to our area.

I think that quagga stallions were larger and heavier as they fought for mares, like other plains zebra subspecies.

There was the last recording of an ōō bird found in Hawaii tried to call but failed to live.

Friendly creatures, but sad endings

Man that falkland wolf extinction is so sad.

Good episode but so heartbreaking

WE COULD OF HAD PET MONK SEALS!

Dusicyon australis (the Falkland wolf) is genetically close to Dusicyon avus ("Burmeister fox") in argentina. One specimen was found burried together with a human in a grave (having shared the same diet, indicating a strong social bond) dated 2000 b.c. the province of Rio Negro, Argentinia more exactly "Loma de los muertos" in General Conesa. Dusicyon australis diverted only 16000 years ago from Dusicyon avus. A row of submarine terraces that became covered in ice, thereby forming islands could have lead Dusicyon australis, with or without humans, to the falkland islands.... RIP lovely, innocent beings.

After watching this, i felt so depressed

The french really said no new friend for you

This video upsets me lol

I could have sworn when I saved this in my watch later yesterday, it had a different title and thumbnail.

thank you, for i have been very very tired and almost ready to rest... your exhibition of humans as an invasive species (plague in my opinion)feeds my hate for my kind and keeps me going 🙏🏻🙃

Lost of four, Extinct animals

Why don’t you get to think and make a suggestion creating another RU-vid Videos Shows that’s all about the Extinct Prehistoric Amphicyons (Bear Dogs) on the next Extinct Zoo coming up next?!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍👍👍👍

Oh shit.. I didnt realize the falkland island wolf got murdered.... I did my animal project from 7th grade on it :[ Damn. Thats sad.

You should do a video about what life was like for the first settlers of Thailand 😮

AI image detected at 16:13, what is that huge monster skull they're standing in front of? What a weird picture to choose to include in the video...

get up, extinctzoo posted

Yay! More food for my recently extinct species hyper fixation!

-Can you imagine, he didn’t cry on the Titanic. -Do guys even have feelings? Me during this video:😨😰😢😱😭

When you look in the mirror in a way you're looking at the most dangerous animal to ever exist the same one that caused extinction of thousands of species

What the F was wrong with that drunk guy

He may have been the first caucasian to step foot on the Falklands, he was not the first person to have set foot on the island. Native Americans from south America periodically tried to settle their but failed presumably due to the harsh weather.

I don't wanna reveal the location exactly but when I was in Mpumalanga, South Africa (I am a native citezen) visiting a few private game parks I saw 2 half Zebra, half horse things and up until a year ago, I had no idea it could be a Quagga or that they were even extinct. This was 12 years ago, and what I saw might've been an attempt to breed a horse and a zebra, but I will never forget how it looked!

Me about to go back in time and save the monk seal

To nobody's surprise, the British empire ruined a lot even in the natural world

Amazing video, a real eye opener on narrow-mindedness humans could display.

rage is a understatement while watching this video
