The Coolest Explorer Alive!
Forrest Galante is known for his experience with nature conservation, wilderness survival and animal expertise. During his youth living in Harare, Zimbabwe, Forrest developed a deep love and strong connection with nature and animals that put him on his path in life. After political unrest forced his family to move back to California, Forrest's love with the outdoors continued.
Forrest Galante has caught anacondas, swam with several species of sharks, photographed venomous reptiles, outsmarted a charging water buffalo, dodged an angry panther and had countless other adventures. He pursued a career in high-risk wildlife biology fieldwork, with a focus on animals on the brink of extinction. His hands-on approach with wildlife, passion for the outdoors and exceptional background eventually led to the development of his own television show, 'Extinct or Alive,' on Animal Planet. The show shadows Forrest on expedition as he searchers the earth looking for species believed to be extinct.
