The Brutal Endings Of These Four Extinct Animals

- Everyday it's estimated that over 100 species die, that's quite a lot, but let's face it most of these species we never hear of, so we don’t really think often about this stat. Yet, once in a while a species well-known to people disappears, causing us to stop for a minute and ponder…

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
Seriously don’t get mad 🙄😒 these were our ancestors, those era were much different then today.
@@seanpetaia Is it really different? A bunch of morons breeding over and over until we get to now.
Colonial Britishmen spreading peace & civilization among backward island species.
@@md.mazedulhaquerefat8585 British is the ones who brings those “backwards”civilization into what they are today. 😁
A similar story happened with and endangered ape that I don't remember the name of that had red fur around it's neck that was thought to be extinct for around 14 years but in 2019 a hunter went hunting shot 3 of them and skined them possible killing the last of the species
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
Sounds like the colonists should be expelled from Malvinas
Psychopaths
@@posticusmaximus1739 To replace them by other colonists, you mean?
@@posticusmaximus1739fuck off, you lot would make it so much worse. you can't even manage your own country or economy
@@zweispurmopped fuvking humans always fuvking things up.
The fate of the Falklands wolf is so tragic, a true savage barbarity has been done upon them.
It's ultimately their fault. They should have quickly learned that humans are to be avoided.
Humans have historically loathed wolves and have eradicated almost every sub species of wolf in the world.
Wolves were once in virtually every country in the world and people literally intentionally hunted them to extinction.
I think we hate other intelligent predators for simply existing.
@@valentinkambushev4968Quit shifting blame.
@@valentinkambushev4968 Yeah and it's the Jews fault that they died in the Holocaust. You see how stupid that sounds?
@@valentinkambushev4968no way you’re blaming the animals for being hunted in mass
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
Wait until you discover Russians 😅
they got there by land bridge, they just had no fear of any predator, because they havent been around them for 16 million years. a lot of island animals behave that way. pretty sad we would take advantage of any animal that makes it easy. imagine having populations of animals that are chill with us and not scared. it would be magical and cool, but we cant have anything nice unfortunately.
lmfao i just noticed your name and profile pic, pretty funny man haha
There’s a theory that the reason that people have a fear of human like things (mannequins dolls etc ) is bc there was a human like species we considered dangerous
@@Jesse-kz3ik I thought that was the uncanny valley? Maybe it's a mixture of the two
"The animal was friendly and showed no fear of people" many such cases
There's a reason why we think animals should be afraid from people and run in the modern day. The ones that were afraid of us and ran were the only ones to survive living with us for the last 300,000 years.
There's probably tons of unique animals that went extinct before people thought to start recording things and were not in an environment to be preserved in the fossil record.
Its good for animals to show humans that we can do them harm, some humans lack self awareness especially today.
Like those who touch the mucus layer on the skin of a whale shark.
@@SoulDevoured Yeah like a giant majority of species is exactly like that
That's why the only continent with remaining Megafauna is Africa, because they had enough time to evolve instinct against Humans, but even that isn't enough against a gun
@@mjolninja9358 what?
i just don’t understand how man can see an animal that shows zero aggression and decide to betray its trust and kill it
and i mean it’s one thing to hunt or whatever but i feel like even then most hunters probably wouldn’t go for an animal that comes right up to them and acts curious and friendly. like that’s just not something most people are willing to do, it just feels cruel and wrong
@@nckojita Dunno, Catholics would do it, they believe accumulating as many sins as possible is an good thing, so when they wash their sins with money, they got their moneys worth
I was deer hunting one time and a young doe walked right up to me as I was walking to my setup. I just watched her walk up to me look at me for a bit then walk off. I couldn’t shoot an animal like that.
money
they were hungry
“Welp, this is depressing.”
-Me during the entire video
Yup! It just kept getting worst 😢
Wolf one was the worst in my opinion.
@auouraschannel5230 I'm paused with the Caribbean seals and wondering how can you kill something that came up to you being friendly
@@user-ww9pd2rz4e yep, agreed
@@user-ww9pd2rz4e Just find enough greedy or annoyed people and every big animal is in huge trouble.
I think it’s extremely immoral and savage to kill a friendly and trusting animal that just comes up to you
Most humans are savage and just want to kill everything on sight. I despise mankind, even though I’m a human myself…
Its dishonorable for sure
@@samoliver9132 it is. I hate people who kill animals for no reason
I’m a hunter, and I’ve killed many animals, but I’ve never killed an animal that approached me without fear or skepticism of what I was. That’s simply not moral. It’s not something a real hunter does. You give the animal a fair chance to run away from you, and if you still manage to kill one when they had the advantage, then you truly hunted an animal.
@@the.mr.schrader as long as you’re hunting for food there’s completely no problem. But if people hunt for “sport” they’re scumbags. (In my perspective)
Damn the poor island doggies story is just sad
Sounds like a classic Disney animated film
This might be controversial to say, but the fate of the Falkland island dog, I think that considering it was the very last of its kind, putting out of its misery of loneliness is better than letting be sad and miserable for the rest of its life, knowing it’s the last of its kind.
And don’t tell me animals don’t have the same emotions as we humans do, because studies have claimed evidence to the contrary!
See I can understand the first settlers, afraid of being charged by a rabid wolf. But the aftermath, yeah it's sad scary and disgusting.
@@demoncore5342The technique where they lured them with meat and then stabbed them truly disgusted me, I don't truly believe in good and evil but I can't think of any better word to describe that if not evil
@@mcarlinod Yeah, extremely evil and cruel, morally corrupt, and heartless. Killing simply to kill, especially in such a needlessly cruel way to an animal who is that harmless, just beyond fucked. Extremely aggravating that a whole species of would was wiped out just because humans wanted to kill them.
We had a chance to become friends with seals and we F it up we could have had sea dogs 😂
I wonder if you would have been so friendly if you were one of these starving sailers who encountered them first.
@valentinkambushev4968 I guess you weren't listening to the video when they talked about massive hunts to kill seals to use their oil as lubricants for industrial machinery in sugar plantations. I guess you don't know much about the history of Latin America and the Caribbean, but the owners of sugar plantations weren't exactly starving or struggling to survive.
U a birdbrain
@@valentinkambushev4968 yea bro the plantation owners killing their for their oil to lubricants their machines were starving 😂
@@Dell-ol6hb Any way I can find info on the descendants of those plantation owners? I must marry one of their own as revenge for the seals and steal their money.
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.
Furry fandom gets pissy when you call out the Big Bad Wolf trope is harmful propaganda
I love wolves and it makes me sad that people kill them.
Well humanity better hope aliens never come visit us and do the exacte same thing to us.
That’s assuming they are advanced and bloodthirsty enough. For all we know we could pull an Avatar on them.
Aliens better hope we never discover FTL travel.
@@CollegeBallYouknow I want to think the same, but realistically speaking they would probably exterminate us from orbit with some kind of chem weapon, radiation or Emperor knows what.
Assuming humans don’t pull out nukes as soon as they arrive and try to take over immediately
We'd deserve that treatement.
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.
Those animals ate by ripping the throats out of other animals. Grow up you immature little baby. Seriously grow up.
The Thylacine had the same fate as the Falkland wolf. Only they were reclusive and avoided people. But still hunted to extinction.
Yet another case where an animal was killed due to ranchers. When its been proven now that thylacine never even targeted sheep or cattle. Just such a shame…
@@xBloodxFangx Letting dumbfuck ranchers onto the American and Australian continents was a huge mistake.
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.
Yeah, though think about it… humans do this manipulation with other humans sometimes too… 😢 many humans are just cruel
@@Six_the_Dragon Yes... After all, the bigger the smile, the sharper the knife.
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...
Scary? I don't know about that but that drunk guy is a fucking idiot
When has anyone even made a smart decision when they're drunk??? that dude is or was a pure dumbass I hope he went to jail for it
The scariest thing to me is the stuff people can do while thinking straight as with the first few animals
@@designedtowin7244 I get you man, still there's method in the madness. I see random acts of pointless violence way scarier, that shit that could happen to anyone any moment...

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
Pretty sad to know if the government build the dam without knowing if there's animal that will be suffered because the dam blocked their movements. Chinese paddlefish also suffered from the same fate and only declared extinct pretty recently in 2020
Lmao, why people paid so much attention toward panda but not something that less adorable like paddlefish or river dolphin
@prasetyodwikuncorojati2434 those were two of the most impressive animals in the ENTIRE world and seems like most people haven't heard of either
Moral of some stories, humans suck
Humans do suck.
Colonialism and ignorance suck. Stop being a misanthrope, touch grass, learn the histories of indigenous peoples.
So does that mean you suck too? Careful how you word things bro!
@@ulfberht4431 yeah
Or humans rule. I can't blame hungry sailors for getting berzerker on a one of a kind species. On the other hand, industrialized overkill is disgusting.
How drunk do you have to be to jump a dear, thats wild
The Quagga is a tragic story it's similar to what happen to the cape Lion's unfortunate demise
The falkland wolf could have been an awesome pet. Damn
If time travel is permitted, the first thing we do is save these poor animals from extinction
how? 10/10 chances are that you get killed for not speaking the same or being the wrong race, no chance you can convince them to not kill animals for profit
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...
The Holocene Extinction..
@@KonnorHermann I heard the #Anthropocene.
@@a.randomjack6661 I have as well, some call it the Holocene extinction, some call it the Anthropocene. I think its just different terms used for the same thing. Regardless, things aren't looking good in terms of biodiversity lately.
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.
That is incredible, also stupid since lizards keep insect populations under control. Also I expect nothing wlse from Florida, that state is filling up with selfish boomers.
un-based and HOA-pilled
I’d have said, “Ms, shove this petition where the sun don’t shine. The lizards have as much right to be here as you.” Ahhhh I love confrontation!
As a Canadian reptile enthusiast this makes me so sad! 😭 they are tiny little things that are just living, your just living in the same space as them so just get used to it! It’s just like if a bird had pooped there! Nature is gonna take a poop wherever it needs to 😂 if anything those lizards are actually pest control! They eat many insects that may be trying to crawl into your home!
Humans impact of nature is actually depressing because we just saw a lot of these animals as products/resources rather than living things..
We are nature, we are animals
We are nature, we are animals
@@vergilcold1167 dunno, we are natures boogiemen, strange and alien looking, hairless, walking, carrying tools, wondering in large packs of thousands, and utterly ruthless, if we were 3 feet tall and don't have thumbs, imagine the terror we would have when an human encounter us, scarier then bigfoot, Skinwalkers, and every other monster we can conquer up, for sure
@@vergilcold1167 yeah and we've treated eachother the same way we exploited these animals, when we used to enslave eachother
@@vergilcold1167most of us are nothing most of us are disgusting
This episode just made me hate humans more. People are just so cruel to some of the friendliest animals.
You hate yourself then?
@@denalexanderobach5461 Yes but especially you
Stabbed in the back... 😔
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!
the last story is crazy
Never knew about the Falkland Wolf. Great video of a sad subject.
Keep up the great work lad.
Will do. Thanks!
“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?!
I love this channel , every upload is very interesting and informative
Great video! I can also think of Père David's Deer and Great Auk, both sad stories too.
The Pere Davvid's deer isn't extinct (yet), but it was a close thing too.
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.
I wish that too.
I agree 💯
Another excellent video! Thanks!
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.
Love the video! Awesome 👏🔥
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.
How about reporting it to government approved conservation groups that can help it out?
Like that's a bit better then letting your neighbor make the mistake of reporting it to the wrong people.
No. You should to an actual scientist because they will protect it and the land its on. (At least in the US). Not reporting it means that the animal can be killed with no consequence.
absolutely braindead logic
Great video. I'll check out some of your other videos
You did NOT have to put in the Peter Parker and Tony Stark scene 😭😭✋
Nice vid!
good vidioe like always keep it up brother
Please put all your videos in 1 big playlist! Love falling alseep to your content
the quagga is so cool
Humans prove time and time again that as a species they aren’t the most intelligent but the least harmonious
Kindness = A weakness to exploit. A sad fate for so many beautiful animals
This video just proves that there are docile creatures that die to man's cruelty.
Couldn’t finish this, too sad for me
This video is... so depressing. :(
It is just sad knowing that we killed so many species animals because we were selfish,greedy and had no empathy truly a tragedy
There's plenty more species to come and go because of us...yeah I get that we try to preserve species but we make them go extinct faster then we save them
So sad. I live in Florida, and it makes my heart hurt knowing we used to have seals here. Such a shame.
We use to have wolves too. The Florida Black Wolf. Smaller and often mistaken for black coyotes. They were killed off due to ranchers moving in
These stories are perfect example of human greed and how hunters are NOT Conservationist
It's not a black an white issue, and depends greatly on the hunter in question. My father taught his children to only take/hunt what they needed. Moreover, if we wounded an animal (poor shot), we were responsible for pursuing it until we could put it out of its misery. Sport hunting is a definite no-no: IF you don't have a use for the animal's meat, etc., you don't hunt it.
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.
Good point...I think it wasn't ever intended to be dismissive, but was so unconsciously. And we should do better
western science and biology completely forgetting that natives exist. many such cases
you are confident but you have no case. SCIENCE tends to refer to what info is known, and while it is likely that someone before said westerner encountered the species, it is not recorded in history
@@hooktraining3966 but the video claims Attilio Gaitti was “among the first people to witness” an Okapi and Bongo. That is definitely false.
But can you prove it is definitely false?
God I hate how cruel humanity bruh :(
earth is so beautiful yet the world is so ugly, can't help but feel disgust for what we are
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
yeah let's just assume he meant the century later as people make those kinds of mistakes even if they are simple
There was the last recording of an ōō bird found in Hawaii tried to call but failed to live.
A ōō bird? I have never heard of that? Is it pronounced Oo?
@@Six_the_Dragon well, look it up.
Isnt it called Kauaʻi ʻōʻō bird, not just ōō?
@@unluckyart2191 of course
16:13 Ummm WTH is that ENORMOUS skull looking thing behind the Men ??? 😮
I looked it up bc I was also curious and apparently it’s just an AI generated image. There’s a series of 4 total similar images, all generated.
Seems like just an uncaught oops inclusion in an (as far as I can tell) otherwise accurate video.
@@TheGrrthanks, dude! I was wondering too! This makes a lot of sense
Nice video♥️
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
WE COULD OF HAD PET MONK SEALS!
Me recordó a un episodio de los Simpson
Wow , this was depressing
Man that falkland wolf extinction is so sad.
The quagga may have left us, but at least we can make zonkeys
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...
Yes saw that too, faces all look weird. Just turns me off the video right away
Good episode but so heartbreaking
I've seen you use a few different cover Fotos, the one used now, around the time of posting, I think is very good 👍
After watching this, i felt so depressed
The fact that all this happened because of hunters and not other animals is just sad
Lost of four, Extinct animals
Amazing video, a real eye opener on narrow-mindedness humans could display.
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....
I think that quagga stallions were larger and heavier as they fought for mares, like other plains zebra subspecies.
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
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!
Friendly creatures, but sad endings
To nobody's surprise, the British empire ruined a lot even in the natural world
Lol yet westerners like you still act like the US Empire( which stil carries on the legacy of the British Empire) still invades lands and desecrates them ruining their ecological value for more money in their pockets and for you westerners to enjoy the very cheap slave labour products that you people get from our countries
i swear, something about actively participating in colonization must make people want to kill everything that moves cos i really feel like most people would say it just feels wrong to kill an animal that comes up to them being all curious and friendly. like it’s really just bizarre that they kept doing this nonsense everywhere they went 😭
Wow it's not like natives didn't do the same thing
Chinese also currently consume many animals until this day so why aren't you blaming them?
@@denalexanderobach5461natives weren’t really hunting animals to extinction like this
The french really said no new friend for you
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.
The Falkland wolf’s fate really makes me realize just how horrible we are as a species.
get up, extinctzoo posted
What the F was wrong with that drunk guy
What is wrong with most humans?
@@philw6056Absolutely nothing
Moral of the story: don’t be friendly to humans.
If I found that interesting? I found that gut wrenchingly depressing but people need to hear it. I work with animals, particularly predators and canids have always had my heart. Every time I think about the Falkland Islands Wolf or the domesticated Culpeo, I can't help thinking how shit we are as species...or were until we knew better but there's still people out there going after endangered animals and it's just gross. People always say "well try starving and being poor and see where your morality gets you." My father lived it and never gave in to that side of humanity. Now I get to rehabilitate animals and build cars, the two things I love to do for a living.
Also, I just want to say I'm really glad you changed things up the way you did. I remember watching your first videos back when the channel started and giving genuine, honest feedback because I liked the direction. Now you're starting to pop-off in the niche and I'm glad to see it.
This video upsets me lol
Me personally if I saw a docile fucking animal my first thought wouldn’t have been to kill it it would’ve been to fucking pet it and maybe have it as a pet but okay :/
right??? esp a wolf or fox, like ok free dog!!! european colonists were so aggressive for no reason i stg smth ab actively doing colonization must make you want to kill everything that moves cos it’s really just so bizarre
Having a seal as a pet wouldn’t be such a good idea
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.
Gets called, “Extremely ferocious”, first European to see one said “free dog” and it just rolled with that until canons got involved.
Why don’t you get to think and make a suggestion creating another RUclips Videos Shows that’s all about the Extinct Prehistoric Amphicyons (Bear Dogs) on the next Extinct Zoo coming up next?!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍👍👍👍
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.
We couldve had these wolves as companions to this day. We couldve had these seals on our shores and in our oceans. Quaggas could have still been running through the fields. That Deer could've still been seen amongst the reeds to this day.
People freaking suck.
Oh shit..
I didnt realize the falkland island wolf got murdered....
I did my animal project from 7th grade on it :[
Damn. Thats sad.
Me about to go back in time and save the monk seal
The drunkard is the single most infuriating end I have ever heard for an extinct animal.
Animal: Freindly
Humans during the 1800s: That was your only mistake.
Is the tamed wolf theory widely debated or denied based on the horror of the thought?
Reminds me of the dingo. And actually Madagascar has what are essentially a cat colony that have a dingo-like dropped off by ancient humans story
