Nature's Leading Advocate!
Forrest Galante is a name synonymous with nature conservation, outdoor survival and animal expertise. Growing up in Harare, Zimbabwe, Forrest harvested a love and deep connection with the natural world that seemed to map out his future. After political unrest forced his family to move back to California, Forrest's love with the outdoors continued.
Galante was a participant on Discovery Channel's show 'Naked and Afraid' in December of 2013, where he spent 21 demanding days in the jungles of Panama. He was considered the leader of the group by the cast, and not only survived, but thrived. This was the public's introduction to the naturalist Forrest Galante. He now hosts Animal Planet's hit show 'Extinct or Alive,' where he uses his unique skill-set scouring for evidence that animals once declared extinct may still be alive. Galante deems this the most meaningful television work he has ever been a part of, as it partners conservation with education and wildlife with exploration. It's his dedication to the natural aspects of the planet we live on that attracts us to this incredible person.
