Forrest Galante is synonymous with the natural world, outdoor survival and animal expertise. Growing up in Harare, Zimbabwe, Forrest harvested a life-long love of nature that set him on his path in life. After political unrest forced his family to move back to California, Forrest's involvement with the outdoors grew.

In the winter of 2013, Forrest Galante spent 21 demanding days in the Panamanian jungle as a participant on Discovery Channel's program 'Naked and Afraid.' He was considered the leader of the group by the cast, and not only survived, but thrived. This was the public's first encounter to the adventurer Forrest Galante. He now hosts Animal Planet's hit program 'Extinct or Alive,' where he uses his unique set of skills to search for evidence that animals once declared extinct may still be alive. Galante deems this the most detrimental television work he has ever done, as it partners conservation with education and wildlife with exploration. It's his undeniable dedication to the wild aspects of the world we live in that draws us to this incredible person.
