The Greatest Naturalist Around!

At 14, Forrest Galante was the youngest person in history to head an international canoe safari down the Zambezi River. And this is just one of the many examples of his early expeditions. Galante is truly passionate about education and helping people save our most valuable resource-our planet. His expertise with wildlife along with his scientific background are assets to biological groups around the world as he usually seeks to partner with local groups exploring remote regions. As a naturalist, Forrest aims to leave a positive, biological impact in every place he visits, whether searching for fresh-water turtles in Australia or Komodo dragons in Indonesia.



Forrest Galante has caught crocodiles, swam with several species of sharks, photographed venomous snakes, outsmarted a startled hippo, dodged a cyclone and had countless other adventures. He started out his career in high-risk wildlife biology fieldwork, always focusing on animals close to extinction. His hands-on approach to wildlife, love for the outdoors and one-of-a-kind background has led to the development of his own Animal Planet television program, 'Extinct or Alive.' The show follows Galante as he treks across the earth searching for creatures he believes have wrongfully been deemed extinct.
