Hey boys from Oz, no thylacines in the yard, but a suggestion for editing. Could you please add photos of each animal, place and people you talk about in the podcast. It would be great to get some visual references as we watch and listen! Loving the podcast 👌 cheers boys!
Probably worried about licensing rights, they talk about buying rights often.
Ya I agree. That would go a long way
You're probably not wrong there, but you'd think Forrest has a lot of his own photos
Thylacine awareness group Australia, they have some good videos...

Im from Papua New Guinea and recently turned 21 , when I was a kid , my mum would tell me stories about her childhood she spent in her village and how the habitats were untouched and different. She told me there used to be a lot of strange/unique wild dogs with tiger stripes in the jungle and and this was the 80s and an hour drive from Port Moresby. My grandparents would tell me the same, they said they said these unique dogs disapeared few years after more development came in . It's all coming back to me , those unique dogs with tiger stripes were actually surviving thylacines ! I showed a photo to my mum recently just to confirm with her and she said that was the dog in her childhood,she doesn't actually know what it was and I explained and she looked shocked that it was never a dog
The fact that two separate groups were so confident in seeing a thylacine really encourages me
North Sentinel Island:
100% unvaccinated
100% COVID free
Because they kill everyone who gets close 🤣
They protect themselves with a different sort of jab.
Someone needs to inform them that they must lock down until they are fully vaccinated.

They’ll protest their freedoms being trampled on doe…
@@sam5tue577 I mean yes and no. No one's has any reason to, but they could just be bombed.
Thank you guys for this. This Monday was going to suck extra hard, but then I got the notification that y'all dropped a new one and the whole day started to turn around. I appreciate you guys more than you'll ever know, and am so happy to be able to help you bros with some tunes.
Look up why the natives of sentinel island are so hostile to outside influence. East India Company made contact with them in the 1700’s and did what they were best at. Disease was unleashed on the people and others were kidnapped or killed in battle. Bad things just happened to follow white visitors. I imagine after 250 years their tall tales became even taller, any outsiders are probably viewed as a sign of the apocalypse.
How does religion cause people to make Poor decisions? Doesn’t matter which religion it is all prominent religions teach people a better way to act and treat others.
Idk if god is real but religion is what gave us morals that established our laws.
sick pod fellas. Subbed after the catfish talk
Always a pleasure bros 🤝✊🏽
I have 100% seen a thylacine. I am a student of biological sciences at LaTrobe University and have been obsessed with the natural world since i could pick up a book. When i was about 8 or 9 years old my grandfather took my sister and i into the countryside (this happened in far south-eastern Victoria, right near the coast and in very densely forested area) to visit our great aunty, his sister.
On the trip back, so we’re coming home, our sparkplugs blew and we had to stop. We got out, it was early evening or late afternoon, from memory it was about 6 or 7 PM because i remember there was still a lot of sunlight. We went to a farmer’s house and told him and his wife why we’d stopped outside his property, and they were very friendly, they let my sister and i have some lemonade and whatever.
Anyway, that’s all boring shit, let’s get to the thylacine. I was sitting under a tree with my sister right on the front of their property, so facing the road, and the husband and my grandfather were at the car waiting for the RACV people to show up. I looked to my left, across a field bordering the forest, and i saw this weird looking dog kind of slinking over a paddock. It was *NOT* a fox, i can 100% tell you it was not a fox, i grew up in the country and i know what foxes look like, my dad and i used to go fox hunting all the time. It had a super straight, thin tail and a completely straight back, with little round ears and stocky legs. It had a sort of long snout that looked very stocky, clearly not a dog or a dingo (there are no dingoes down there anyway).
I stood up and walked over because i thought it was one of those dogs with the huge muzzles, i can’t remember what the breed is called but i used to like them as a kid because they looked different and everyone thought they were ugly. I went over to the fence and saw that the animal had stripes on its hind side running parallel, tapering to the top of the tail and stopping halfway up its body. I’m telling you, it was a thylacine.
It stopped and looked at me with really weird looking eyes, unlike anything i’ve ever seen, and then it just trotted off (yeah, trotted, it was like it was speed walking or something). It ran off into the forest and i told the guy, the husband guy, that i thought i saw a thylacine.
He said i probably did as he has seen several over the course of his life and said they used to kill his father’s sheep there.
I have since asked many other people living down that way, near the Gippsland ranges, and about 1 in every 5 people that i’ve asked claim they’ve seen one or even many in that same area. It’s an area without dingoes, without many foxes at all, and with heaps of prey for it.
I’m telling you that as someone who knows animals, it was a thylacine. You can relax if you’re worried about them being extinct because the fact i just saw one on this random day in early evening means there’s probably a lot of them. I’m telling you, they’re still around and if they’re alive in Victoria they’re definitely alive in Tasmania and Papua New Guinea. We just need to get one on camera!
Edit: This happened in about 2009 or 2010 for anyone wondering, so not very long ago at all.
LMAO there is zero recent evidence or photos of a Thylacine, yet we should believe that an 8 year old saw one and that there's not just a few, but MANY.... all without any evidence whatsoever. That's simply delusional. Lots of people think they see bigfoot too... so I guess there are many of them as well?
@@BornIn1500 Actually Thylacines do exist on Papua New Guinea, the natives there have them as pets. They call them Striped Dogs. And anyone who lives in rural Victoria or Tasmania will attest to seeing them. Considering this was their habitat only a few decades ago (there were reliable sightings into the 1960s and 1970s) i seriously doubt that the Thylacine is extinct. Bigfoot is not even a real organism, sure Gigantopithecus was around but it only lived in Asia. I understand the difficulty in imagining that they are around, but I am extremely confident they will be rediscovered within the next few years. There is an expedition heading to Papua New Guinea led by a Zimbabwe-born naturalist to look for them and i'm certain they'll find them with the indigenous people there.
"The real housewives of North sentinel Island" bro lmao
The work of missionaries isn’t really brainwashing. People have the choice not to believe it.
That's always the story
The very idea is rather self righteous
They do know
Also he found they had all moved to a modern type village and would only go to the tree top houses when they're being filmed and paid.
Just found this today. Im on my third episode. I gotta say a TWT/PainKillerAlready mashup episode would be AMAZING. I feel like these 2 pods are running so parallel they would just mesh perfectly. Also i saw a comment about editing. Woody would be happy to help you get your audio perfect.
Couldn’t agree more! But woody would need to be wrung in.
Edit: animal fights; need I say more?
Missed you guys!!!
I’ve been waiting for a new wild times
Patrick filming from his panic room again 😅
I would love to see the white caps and foreste idea!
Love you bros!!!!
Been stuck at home for the last couple of weeks with Covid so bored I was going out of my mind and this is how I found this podcast. Great stuff guys keep it up
6:05
In noodling if you miss the plate they spin on your arm like a hyped up croc doin a death roll.
Yes! Been waiting for this one. Awsome topic. Thank You 👊
Regarding the missionary, could he of given them a the flu or something like that and wiped them out was that possible
I only just found this podcast a couple weeks ago. been trying to find more gallante for a while. finally found my fix.
@@sidstevens9035 thanks buddy. I'm a sycophant for thylacine I'll tell you that for free.
Hey guys just found this podcast and I’ve been loving it. Idk if you’ve already covered this topic but I’ve heard about more and more reports of common snapping turtles that hybridized with alligator snapping turtles. It seems like a topic yall would cover and may have some info. Thanks 👋
Patrick wins no questions asked the best BR ever right there
Forest has never been Noodling? So I've done something cool that Forest hasn't done yet? Suck it, Forest!
Retep I really thought you’d pick the octopus to be your drummer 🐙 🥁
A real missed opportunity :-(
I too like the bagel ball retep
That same story happened to me except we drove back to Syracuse instead of Oswego hahahaha
You boys should try to get Todd Standing on about sasquatch,he has been up to some interesting stuff
That thylacine that Rotep thought was cute was dead in that photo 😅
Finally!! Where have you guys been?
I know Forrest has been depriving the world of all the mushrooms
Fark yeah this is a rippa podcast
Miss ya Mike
Yah working at the minute Mike ? Bit of Ad-hoc ?
This became my favorite podcast when I stumbled upon it 2 months ago. You guys are fuckin hilarious 🤟💯 get better soon bro!
no wonder i nevercaught one of these live they start at 1 am lol
Do you know the name of the article or book about thylacines that brings up the Zanzibar leopard episode?
I'll back forrest I'm a swimmer and whenever I get a cold I feel rubbish but when I swim everything feels great
I'm sure you will find the thylacine in new guinea.
It just makes sense to look in the only place that is still nearly as it was for hundreds of years.
diggin the new thumbnail bois
Late to the party, but those catfish have serrated spines on their dorsal and pectoral fins. Channel cats, blues, flatheads don’t sting but they hurt like hell if you get nicked by one. Their are smaller species called madtoms, more specifically the brindled madtom, are only two inches long, here in indiana that has a minor venom on their spines, which if pricked by one of them, your arm goes numb for about 20 minutes.
Daddy Thylacine lives in Medway, Uk.

Hi from Tasmania ✌️
Imagine Forrest Galante and Bear Grylls parachuting into the highlands of Irian Jaya, sighting, tracking and tranq-ing a thylacoleo carnifex and then being extracted by skyhook ala spec ops style.. Now that's an adventure.. 😜
@@sidstevens9035 You can’t be seriously suggesting he faked that footage?
Patrick didn't mention the book the pod was mentioned in.
Oceans are full of salts and minerals , your body can absorb them through some parts of your skin.
forrest riddle me this!! why does noone think that in canada, specifically the northern areas wher a land mass 2nd to one in the world with a population of new york city...does noone think there could be undiscovered species, we literally have the biggest unexplored boreal forest in the world but everyones attitude is lack ya no theres prolly nothing in there...seems illogical to me
like oh there not alot of people onthis island the size of my city i bet hers bunch of animals there...mean while in northwest territories thers 100thousand people in a forest the size of texas and noone is having a look? like w tf
Yep totally agree, we just last week found another hidden tribe of people in the Amazon that hasn't had any contact with humans whatsoever. So who's to say there isn't a bipedal humanoid roaming Canada/USA.
@@xxxneoxxx because its -100 degrees?
There's far more biodiversity in tropical areas than in arctic/subarctic areas. Also animals living in arctic areas tend to be larger and animals living in tropical areas tend to be smaller. Obviously it's a lot harder to spot smaller animals especially in jungles with immensely thick vegetation. And although the population of Northern Canada is very low and the land area enormous, it's still more explored than some of the far off tropical areas of the world. That being said there absolutely could be undiscovered species there, it's just more likely there are far more undiscovered species in exotic tropical locations.
@@WILD__THINGS u are correct but i live in a cloud rainforest at 3000feet on the 50th parallell surrounded by national park bigger than washington state. but the idea that its explored is incorrect 35 million people 80% live in cities i live in an area where there are 33 people in 200 square KM i have photo evidence of ivory billed woodpecker ,fischer cats and leaopard toads wall wich should not be here or in the case of the wood pecker declared extinct. but thers 30 of us out there with not even a phoneline so nobody know or believes
Potens wasn't a subspecies ut was a separate species and it lived in aus. Also It went extinct waaay before humans even arrived in Australia or PNG
Hey, I’m a huge fan and I’m an Oklahoman. Just wanted to throw a couple noodling facts out there. Firstly, I once met a guy who used to noodle a lot and one of his hands had probably 10% function. He swam into a beaver hole and got bit in the middle of the wrist. It shattered both bones and severed several nerves and tendons. Also, most people think it’s just sticking your arm in the hole but when it’s a decent sized flathead or blue, the holes are like 5-15 ft deep. So often it takes a chain of 2 or 3 guys holding onto the next guys feet, to get to the back of the hole and get to the catfish. I have holes in my ear drums from tubes so I can’t go under water. But I’ve often been the last guy in the chain, or reached in the arm deep holes for smaller fish. It’s terrifying but entirely worth it for the fresh fried catfish.
Out of curiosity how much would a special one off be? Budgetwise
You guys should get chandler’s wild life on the pod
When will you go look for the thylacine again Forrest??
forest mate, if you came to tasmania and see the remoteness and wildness that is here, you'd realise how possible it is that the thylacine is still here.
he has been to Tasmania
@@fishingnh4543 not deeply enough, obviously
He has done half wit
@@Tom-uv7ry want some do ya, tough guy?
I’m in guys let’s roll
I tune in for the thylacine content 🥲 I’ve been following them as closely as possible sense I was in the 3rd grade and wrote a small research paper on them. Nice content Lads
I imagine the north sentinel island story is kinda how life long Texas residents feel about all the "turn Texas blue" folks moving in from places like LA and NYC.
You guys should have a tonne more subscribers here on RUclips.
Great pcast. Just want to add Peter is a comedy genius
Your sarcasm is on par 🤣
Always love when Retep gets loose with insults :D 57:34

Just a note guys, when you put a map on screen, please make it full screen while y'all are talking about for us blind folks who can't see much when it's just one of the squares. We don't have to see your faces all the time. LOL
haha noted 😂😘
I mean, you are all handsome and pleasing to my eyes, but I'm a total geek about the natural world (especially. Papua) and strained to see where Forrest was referring to on the map. 😀
Theres a slight reverb on their voices in my headphones. Anybody else get that too?
Where thylacines nocturnal?
I’m Australian and I have no idea. But it would make more sense if they were night stalkers
It definitely is going on. And i would definitely wat h that show. Although you can actually see lots of Facebook smuggling out of Myanmar
New show on Amazon "Peripheral" has CGI thylacine.
What the link to catfish in the cooling pipe?
British guy did a documentary on the "Korawi" aired channel 4 a few years ago. Stayed a month on 3 occasions over a year. They ended up robbing him and holding him hostage. Came across as a very deceptive tribe.
Think it's called. My year with a tribe. Yes interesting but turned sour

What is the name of the island that he’s talking about 6:36 ?
Late comment but if people out here think native tribes aren’t still practicing

What big cowsided animal was found in Thailand? my google skills are failing me i cannot seem to find anything about this animal? Whats the spelling on it Q_Q

Just wanted to point out the "black panther" or "black cat" in Texas is real thing. My grandma grew up around them and it was just a known thing. I've seen one in my mom's driveway. I believe Joe Rogan even caught one on security camera and saw it. Their not big like mountain lions or small like house cats. The size is very similar to a snow leopard. They're not bobcats, they're not mountain lions, I'm honestly really not sure what they could be. They're bigger than Jaguarundi and I don't know of any reports of Jaguarundi with melanism. Imagine a fully black African leopard the size of a snow leopard and that's what they look like.
You should do extinct or alive game again
39:51 Hey Forrest.... you should really watch "end of the spear" and then maybe it might become more apparent to you why some one would at least try.
What's the first thing to do when discovering a previously thought extinct species? sedate it and take it with you? take blood samples? contact the wildlife authorities? What exactly is the best line of action?
I personally would have to sedate it and take it with me, imagine finding someone extinct and not being able to show people and everyone saying the photos are fake,people only believe it if they actually see it, what do you think you would do Busta
@@sidstevens9035 hahah where did you get this idea that he faked this?
just from watching extinct or alive i know forrest usually gets a DNA sample to confirm if possible.
Shoot it
Is the Thylacoleo related to the Thylacine at all?
I have always wanted to explore Papua New Guinea. It looks so beautiful. Imagine all the secrets hidden in there.
Dingos did not outcompete thylacines. Australia is vast. And moreover there is plenty of prey and place to hide. I believe they are still out there. Thousands of sightings cannot be wrong. People are not idiots. They know what they see. Few of them can be mistaken but not everybody,
Currently live in Daytona beach it is a dumpster fire
Peter might have been thinking of a horned pout. We have them in New Hampshire and it’s a small catfish species that has a spike on its pectoral fins and it’s dorsal fin. I don’t know if other catfish have them or if it’s just the type that we have around here.
your in nh aswell where at maybe we cab link up for some ice fishing
These 3 guys are so impressed with the size of the chain on that little crane...I love it 😅😅😅 fr I love these guys because they aren't trying to be anything they aren't and you gotta love genuine people. ❤️
Animal trafficking on DW is how transactions are occurring between unknown people. Making a dent in it would require a substantial amount of time and resources, both human and monetary. Grabbing a few white hatters you might take down a few transactions, but to actually make an impact it would need to be a fairly sizable and coordinated effort… people with skills are willing…
People who have experience with the scale of operation needed would be best… the problem has grown exponentially since the advent of bitcoin…
Gotta give the BR win to reteP this episode boys
Has anyone else ever wondered what wildlife they have on North Sentinel island, there could be anything on that island.
Almost certainly not much in mega fauna. Its not a big island. The sentinelese or however its spelt would have hunted most large animals.
I’ve actually thought about this before
@@jamesizzard7835 yeah I doubt there is any mega fauna, but Birds, Reptiles, Amphibians are just as interesting for me.
@@samrandles5396 whos to say they aren't off the menu. Then again they must understand sustainability to be their that long. They must either farm livestock or some types of crop.

Thanks. I think.

Is the Thylacine protected in New Guinea? Can it be shot there?
Loving the pod guys! Lol please get rid of that death star 🎤 mic, or paint it black.
This is why I watch RUclips to learn about this type of stuff, not to watch narcissists or people arguing about who's dads harder. Ffs🌝
Dark web animal stuff is definitely real. I have definitely stumbled upon illegal reptile trade while dealing in legit reptile trade.
I would watch the shit out of that show
they still practice cannibalism I thought that ended in png I didn't know they still actively kill and eat 1 another
it was Austria, not Australia..
Please post the little things rap.
I imagine that the Dingo could adapt to jungle or plains rather quickly. They share ancestry with the New Guinea Singing Dog and Carolina Dog which both live up in mountain forest, the New Guinea Singing Dog in particular lives rather high up in the mountainous jungle. Canids are extremely adaptable, it'd be very hard to base a theory around what an ancient canid was doing. The first Dingos coming into Australia would've hit that northern rainforest and that would've been very familiar to them based on where they came from. Their modern behavior was probably very prey related and they didn't really have the option in their ancestral ranges to hunt the plains.
So what you're saying is.. it'll be 30grand just to get there. lol
With all the nothing burger, time stamps would be great
Its very naive to think cannibalism is completely gone the only way to know is go and watch them
🤘
That backdrop color literally deters me from watching.
what exactly is the dark web?
LOL HE IS GOING TO EXPLAIN IT
