- We join Forrest Galante in his never ending search to believe that every extinct creature is still out there. Today we have the Stellar Seacow a giant marine mammal that went extinct 200 years ago, could not submurge and lived in only a very limited range. It's still out there though, promise!

Do you believe the sea cow is out there????
Nah, it’s extinct long time ago😢
how could u not believe in such a thing i mean if seals and walurses are there then it must be too ۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔i mean climate change is not a thing
I mean the ocean is big
I belive we can put a cow in the sea to make it alive
Id love to believe its still alive, but something that measured 30 - 40 ft would have probably been seen now
So no ;
"The moment this guy makes a video on the Megalodon..."
Forrest, 2 months ago: "Did Megalodon Bite This Shark In Half?"
HOW THE HELL DID NO ONE SEE THIS COMMENT
So you don't just make JWE 2 videos all day,
I physically cringed when I saw that title two months ago.
To be fair he said that megalodon was extinct.
@@migueljardim8177 As someone said, he did say no it didnt.
Forrest's next video should be "Why I believe the Gaming Beaver is still out there...."
But first beaver needs to be extinct...grab my shotgun!!
nah it should be "why I believe the gaming beaver is outside my house with a rifle pointed to my head right now...."
Why i believe castroides is still out there
@@bartekdraszawk4315 why i belive an advance humanoid castroides is still alive
"why I believe YOUR mum is still out there..."
Join us next week where we go skydiving to find the extinct bird the DODO!
I'm soo Excited to join 😁
is it possible the Dodo has survived by plummeting out of seaplanes away from humankind? Who gave all these Dodos their aviation training? Was it... the Stellar's Sea Cow? tune in next week!
Hahahaha
How you are not pinned is crazy
Next video be like: I will go on a expectation to find the WOOLLY MAMMOTH.
Comes back from the expedition: I wasn't able to find the woolly mammoth, but an old man from a village near by told me he saw a herd of them walk by!!!
This is officially a series now
Yes
Not complaining honestly
Yes!
Yes

Mrbeast x Galante collab: IN *THIS* video i sent ONE lucky subscriber into the *ARCTIC OCEAN* to look for *TASTY SEA JERKY-*
At least with the Thylacine it's pretty small, people say they see them, there's a closer date to the present (extinction date 1936), but a 30 foot super manatee that can't dive is not hiding that long
Far more likely a 30’ sea mammal is hiding than a 4’ land mammal. If you believe otherwise, you’ve got not concept of the vastness of the ocean. They just discovered a new 30’ species of beaked whale a couple years ago… how outrageous!!!
I disagree we can find it under kelp I bet even though it can't submerge maybe it just has kelp on his back and so you can't see him
It’s a coastal specialized giant marine herbivore. We would’ve recorded them by now. Unfortunately it seems with hunting, as well as the overhunting of the sea otters that essentially tended to the kelp forests the sea cows depended on by eating things like sea urchins did these animals in
By the time hunting stopped and sea otters recovered it was too late
I smell another grift by Forrest, especially when he says that Steller’s sea cows are thousands of miles from their former distribution in GREENLAND
The pictures he found were from a person's fake documentary you can find on CZcams
@@cryodrakonboreas8628 exactly
Yeah they were animals of the North Pacific. Why tf they would be in the Atlantic
@@cryodrakonboreas8628 They probably werent even fake. If it's around greenland they could be bowhead whales, not a seacow tho.
Wait the they went extinct or is it a subspecies
Bro found his Sniperwolf
Hopefully, there will be no doxxing
Difference is I don’t think there’s any malice or devilish intent on either sides
Yet...
Hate and malice grows very fast
Is what I would say if one of these guys was toxic, luckily both these guys are quite polite
Nah Beaver is more legit
Lol
"you need a five mile digestive system" got me off guard
When you have a stomach that big you need a lot of food to survive. There is no way the sea cow survived. First the hungry people, second starvation, third not enough reproducing going on
God, I wish the Stellers sea cow was still around. Must have been a wonderful creature to witness.
In related news, Dugongs and Manatees are gentle giants who are endangered right now, suffering under the very same effects that caused the extinction of the stellers - overhunting by humans for the dugong and habitat destruction for both. Feels like an insult to the whole group to pretend there is any shot of the stellers still being alive - it isn't, and if we feel-good-pretend otherwise, its kin might not remain alive for long anymore, either.
Fun fact: Stellar sea cows still exist, but they're all dead.
Beaver is becoming matpat like seriously im seriously
Edit 18.57 by the way is the best oart of the video in my opinion
And i love it
18:57 YW
He’s the perfect candidate
Hey he even sems to go a bit insane
LIKE MATPAT
Beaver and I totally had the same train of thought at 18.57. I honestly laughed a little when I heard him say exactly what I had been thinking haha.
I like how beaver was like : omg XEIDET is gonna say it!!
XEIDET: this was a waste of time and next time I wanna get payed.
I new XEIDET was going to say somthing like that.
Beaver's reaction be like: 🥲 why?
My song to you is, "Roar of the Gaming Beaver"
In a world where dinos roam and legends are reborn,
There’s a hero with a heart, where great adventures are sworn,
From Jurassic jungles to the land of the free,
The Gaming Beaver sets our imaginations free.
Oh, Gaming Beaver, roaring through the night,
With every game and every fight, you bring the light,
From park builders to creatures so grand,
We’re right beside you, in this digital land.
Pixelated dreams and stories untold,
With every episode, new mysteries unfold,
You guide us through the wild with a fearless grin,
In the world of gaming, you always win.
Oh, Gaming Beaver, roaring through the night,
With every game and every fight, you bring the light,
From park builders to creatures so grand,
We’re right beside you, in this digital land.
Through highs and lows, you stand so tall,
With a beaver’s might, you conquer all,
Subscribers cheer, as you blaze the trail,
In the kingdom of games, you will prevail.
Oh, Gaming Beaver, roaring through the night,
With every game and every fight, you bring the light,
From park builders to creatures so grand,

You’re the beacon in our gaming night.
Nice
@@bob56441 i put alot of effort into it,I went on chatgpt searched,"write a song about the gaming beaver",waited for the thing to finish,copied and posted it on here,lmao
Like it guys, make it popular
it got favorited bro won
Chatgpt ahh comment
gamingbeaver has been the main element of my childhood since day 1 i love your jurassic world videos and i love your channel in general i cant begin on how i miss my childhood..
Beavs, I really appreciate your work on analyzing Forrest as of yet, but I think there's still some stuff about him as a biologist that you should understand. Forrest is what many people call a parachute biologist, which means he's known to take credit for the work of others. He's done so with a few of the species that premiered in his "Extinct or Alive" show, claiming to himself be responsible for discoveries made by other people around the same time and place, and I imagine it's because scientific discovery is a name game for him. He wants his name to be remembered, which is why he's so focused on extinct species rediscovery, and getting himself in locations - and also why almost every time he actually goes to said places, he claims to have found what he was looking for, or at least enough tantalizing evidence to get some articles written about him.
Furthermore, it's work looking into why he was banned from the Galápagos islands after his "Extinct or Alive" episode on a tortoise subspecies there. A good article, while I can't link it here, is titled "The Damage Forrest Galante Has Done to Conservation Biology". While I'd be as bad as Forrest if I took all words in said article at face value and copy-pasted them here as evidence, I think it's at the very least worth a read so you can form your own opinions on the matter.
In short, Forrest has proven himself (at least to me) to be a sensationalist, a credit thief, and personally someone whose word I do not trust.
Exactly
THIS
You know Forrest messed up when even the thylacine fans are against him
Hi thyla 😂
He's a celebrity biologist. He's good at getting people interested in zoology and conservation but ultimately he does a significant amount of damage in the field.
Forrest Galante: *Posts a video about why he thinks a long extinct species is actually alive.*
Beaver and Xseidet: How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?
Fr
Meanwhile long “extinct” species are rediscovered all the time, all over the planet
Beaver slightly maturing his contented more and more is even better and funnier
Tbh this is as bad as the ones who believe there's a plesisaur in scotland, a trex, stego, triceratops & a long neck living in africa... all while a 60ft mega shark is in the marina trench...
I want what you’re smoking
No it’s not. Stellar sea cow went extinct 250 years ago, all those that you listed were gone for millions of years ago. The reason that extinction is an inexact science is because we cannot cover 100% of the earth to know that there aren’t any others out there. We know that there aren’t any t-Rex out there because over the millions of years they would have had time to grow back to the population they once were. Forrest has discovered over 7 previously extinct species over the past 6 years. He’s not crazy like others you are talking about. He’s a scientist, hoping that he can reverse and protect a species that humans may have caused the “extinction” of.
As somebody that lives in Illinois that’s a super boring trip. You can just go do that. I’d rather almost freeze to death, looking for the giant manatee and getting slapped in the face with a big fish.
Oh to be a film crew member in the Aleutian Islands getting my head popped off my neck by a halibut 🙂↔️
Please beaver, continue what you are doing, you have not only made my childhood fun with your primal carnage, ark, Jurassic world the game videos, etc. You have also done it for many others. I on behalf of all your beaver babies want to say, thank you for shining a light in a world of darkness. Have a good day beaver.
the mcdonalds conspiracy is surfacing...just like the stellar sea cow when it sees a ship with 20 men armed with spears
even if steller's sea cow (also tasmanian tiger, moa, and other animals believed to be extinct) really still out there, i'm pretty sure they're already functionally extinct
Yeah Nah Beaver, you're never gonna rest
This is looking like a forrest roast video 😂
Man, Forrest really fell off from rediscovering the Fernandina Island tortoise
Seems like that was a case of stolen valour anyway. A local park ranger named Jeffreys Málaga did the tracking work and found the tortoise first. The Tortoises Wikipedia article was more or less just about this one incident and the controversy surrounding it last I checked, too
@@dr.archaeopteryx5512 I'm glad your bringing it to light I found this fun little article on Forrest's exploits
The Damage Forrest Galante Has Done to Conservation Biology
@@dr.archaeopteryx5512bruh not Wikipedia😭 do u even know what Wikipedia is bruh
@@Drewsanimationtutorials
The Fernandina Island tortoise (Chelonoidis phantasticus) was described in 1907 based upon a specimen collected the previous year (Van Denburgh, 1907). However, it had never been seen since, partly because nobody had specifically looked for it. And even though there were occasional signs over the years that tortoises still inhabited the island, it was assessed as possibly extinct by the IUCN (Rhodin et al., 2017). Subsequently, an expedition was planned to search for the species on Fernandina Island to confirm its persistence. A television crew tagged along, but when an individual tortoise was found by ranger Jeffreys Málaga, the host of the television show, who had nothing to do with the planning, seized the opportunity and took public the credit for the find. The specific details of this highly unethical behaviour by Forrest Galante are given by (Wight, 2020). Although I have not read his new book, 'Still Alive: A Wild Life of Rediscovery' (2021), it appears that he now does credit ranger Jeffreys Málaga with having found the tortoise. But the audience for a popular television show is far more than for a non-fiction book, so that the damage done was not nearly undone and almost certainly will never be.
That isnt from Wiki its from an artical called The Damage Forrest Galante Has Done to Conservation Biology
I would link it but CZcams hates links.
@@Drewsanimationtutorials Wikipedia is fairly reliable. And even if you don't trust it, it provide links to its sources so you can make an informed decision on the reliability of the given information.
Next Forrest Video: someone sends him a Picture of a Colony of Californian Sealions and claims they are Japanese Sealions and he believes it🙃
There’s a lot of people quoting Extinct or Alive without actually knowing the controversies surrounding damn near all the episodes
What are the controversies?
@@user-vo9fn6bt3n taxa that are no longer valid (lion, wolves, clouded leopard and leopard), stolen credit (caiman, tortoises and langur) and even a few fabrications (leopard as well)
@@WildWorld81Parachute science is probably the biggest controversy.
@@kade-qt1zu it is unless Discovery just straight up admits they faked the Zanzibar leopard footage (which they won’t despite the fact they did)
Forrest's next video : "Why i believe the Dodo is still out there..."
It’s hiding in Kentucky, last I heard
@@albytross8681 Kentucky fried Dodo
I hope they make more videos about Forrest, this is just hilarious LOL
This is great! 🤣🤣🤣 Beaver, you and Xseited should do this a lot more, it's bloody brilliant
3:20 Beavs, Beavs the male Narwal that “horn” is a tusk
It is a tooth…
Not to be that guy, but the technical term is a tusk.
Edit: oh you changed it.
It’s a tooth scientifically (I think) and it’s called a tusk because it sounds right. And I’m not complaining.
@@blazarstudiosmoviez a tusk is just a greatly elongated tooth
Makes sense.
next thing hes gonna say is that theres dogs on mars
Beaver and Pal roast a Seacow for about 10 minutes more like 😂
Beaver should make a playlist out of this
I'm loving these.
So your telling me a few people on remote island who have probably gone crazy claim to have seen a giant creature in the water that has been extinct for nearly 200 years and that’s enough for Forrest to make a video about it
And what is wrong with that?
Petition for beaver to make another planet zoo series but do challenges like an ape only zoo
As cool as it would be to see living Stellar's sea cows, I genuinely believe that they are extinct. Considering the fact that the habitats that Stellar's sea cows were known to live in are pretty well explored, I think the chance of a sustainable population of this titan going undetected for over 200 years is nigh on impossible.
I'm liking this "Beaver explores the Forrest" series of videos
Every single frame that they paused on forrest he just looked more nuts each time
I love this series 😂😂 just bringing awareness to delusions etc
13:12 IT WAS FLOATING ROCK🤯
Love xseidet collabs
Beaver in his controversy era
This needs to be a series 😂😂
Love the videos beaver keep up the good work❤❤
At 14:48 I could've sworn Forrest said 'Ridicule of Nan'.
Love this series James, nice video 👌
Yup. He's merging extinct animal and Cryptids with the supposed sightings and very questionable photos.
I know I said it before but if you want to convince people, at least put more logic into it. The recent debacle of Javanese tiger, although also still debated, had some solid "evidence" to it. They actually found Tiger's hair on some wired fences in a region with no tigers in it. That makes people question things instead of showing some lumps at the surface of the water and said it was an extinct giant marine animal.
Best series and CZcamsr out there!
I love how this was good fun. You and Xseidet are the best! But lowkey I really don’t like how Forrest makes millions off of extinct or endangered animals, and instead of conservation, he spends it on fancy trips and safaris that do nothing for the animals. And he takes credit from actual scientists and conservationists…
He is just expanding his content which is awesome!
I love this new series beaver 😂
Why does the tiny manatee look like a platypus
I love your videos beaver
I also thought you would put a toast on that animal to make a reference 😂

Loving this series
Great stuff beaver and good explaining 👍
Beaver debunking another video! I'm loving this series so far. Both funny and educative 😂
Idk what debunking there is, Forrest is just stating reasons why he thinks it's possibly still alive, I don't really, see any issue with that
@@michaeltenn983 I can also give you reasons about why I think the dodo bird is still out there, but without evidence to sustain is just loose ideas, not even an hypothesis 🤷♂️
@xenospinosaurus1501 yeah but what is there to debunk? That's the part I don't understand, like how do you debunk a possibility?
@@michaeltenn983 because there's no possibility at all. Simple as that. The sightings are way too subjective and the tales of different countries could refer to different animals but the one he is talking about. Until someone truly documents a specimen seen with photography and videos, it will remain extinct.
@@xenospinosaurus1501 saying there's no possibility doesn't make sense
love the reaction content man
Forrest has the heart in the right place and is incredibly passionate about nature and conserving it. His videos spread passion to other people, he isnt as bad as youre making him be.
Still, hilarious video 😂
I'm coming off of watching the 8-bitreddit and beaver is killing me
Beaver and other person is making me laugh so hard I’m dying help me
I hope it's out there but I don't believe it's out there.
I actually am loving this comtent beavs! Would be fun if you had mates on more often and just chatted random stuff :)
I am loving these videos!
the duo are back yesss
i love you gamingbeaver, my glorious king, oh where do i even begin
Why you gotta word it like that
Loving the new series beaver 😂
honesty loving this series lol
it’s a series now yayyyyy
Me, just peacefully enjoying clowning on forrest galante:
The 15 year olds commenting:
THANK YOU FOR MY CHILDHOOD I MISS BEING SO YOUNG
Cant wait to see a good playlist with beaver theories
I ate all the Stella cows. You can’t have them now.
16:42 Ah yes, the "Ocean is so big we haven't explored it all, who knows what's down there" argument. Absence of evidence may not be evidence of absence, but lack of convincing proof makes arguments for extinct creatures continuing to live on very weak indeed.
anything could be down there apart from the steller's sea because it can't submerge
What annoys me most about his video is the fact that he is not only using AI art But that the AI art depicts manatees when Stellar Sea Cow’s were more closely related to Dugongs.
Silly little scientific pet peeve of mine 🤷♀️
Keep up the great work Beaver! Love watching ur vids ❤️🎮🦫
PLEASE KEEP UP THE SERIES I LOVE IT ❤❤❤❤
Omg please make this a series! It was so funny
Super Sleuth Beaver is back!
Next he’ll have to do one on Nessy ;)
Thanks Beaver, from a new subscriber, but a long-time watcher! I’m only 18, but I’ve been watching you for probably 10 years now! Aging like fine wine, Beavs ;)
I'm kinda getting to like this new kind of content, Beaver roasting/trolling/ debunking Forrest Gump
The ending reminds me of the movie Up. Where the villain’s motive was to to find a species of bird nobody believed was real, he then went mad and started killing people because he thought they would steal his glory.
Great vid! keep it up, (random question when are you doing a second Creatures of Sonaria vid?
Explorers “what happened to the stellar sea cow?”
Channel islanders holding there suspiciously good tasting burger wearing a coat made of otter fur “good question”
I knew about the Stellar's Sea Cow from Rudyard Kipling's story, "The White Seal", which ALSO postulates that they survived - in a hidden inlet that whaling ships and orcas couldn't get into to eat them. Of course, this novel also has talking seals in it, so perhaps not exactly a scientific resource.
Beaver:I can see why we not going to use this image.
Me:you are god damn right
This is where the fun begins
18:52 I thought he said he’d take a subscriber to search for it. But instead he said, “one lucky subscriber will be invited to join me, a random guy, to go now fishing.” Like what? That’s what a crazy person would say.
ITS A SERIES LETS GOO
WE WANT MORE OF THIS BEAVER!
I'm so f*cking fed up of Ai Computer Rendered Artificial Pictures (Ai C.R.A.P.), it's just seeping into everything. CZcams is just covered in it.
This is what James channel is gonna be, just reactions to Forrest and possibly some more final affliction.
I know this is a month old but i was waiting for someone to talk on the walrus thing but I havent seen it yet (yes I rewatched this video a bunch, I love James and seeing him dis on someone is hilarious)
If he'd done research on walruses he'd solve his own crack theory. The reason the colony was found in a spot where they were never recorded to visit before is because of the melting sea ice! Walrus have various uses for their tusks. Digging up mollusks from the seabed, fighting/settling disputes, fending off predators, and noteably, achoring themselfs to icebergs. They'd often dig their tusks in the ice and sleep, that way they wouldnt float away or drown while asleep. Sort of why sea otters hold hands when they sleep. But because sea ice is melting so rapidly and is less secure, walruses are being forced to rest on beaches. Leading to times where theyre so crowded they climb cliffs to find a spot to rest and fall to their death.
I really like these types of videos, keep it up. 👍 (if you want)
That's the kinds of animal sighting that I always find super weird.
Like, how am I supposed to believe that random people saw this specific kind of sea cow and not just another kind of sea cow or manatee?? Why should I think that eye witnesses have such pristine zoology knowledge that they can differentiate between different kinds of sea mammals, especially since animals tend to move and are rather shy towards humans, so there wouldn't be much time to observe them probably.
manatees and dugongs are tropical, while sea cow is arctic species.
@@Mr.W.Megalodon. That's a fair point, but aren't there other similar animals out there?
@@JohnCena8351 no. Dugong and three species of manatees are the only sirenians alive, and they are also far smaller. I saw a 2 meter long manatee alive and it looked big, but steller sea cow is 5 times larger. The only similliar arctic animals are probably walruses, northern elephant seals and monodont whales, but they are not just smaller, but also carnivores.
@@Mr.W.Megalodon. How the hell would a random observer be able to tell the diet of an animal they glimpsed for a cryptid sighting amount of seconds before disappearing?
Monodont whales (Belugas and Narwhals) look incredibly similar to modern sea cows, especially from above, due to their stocky build and lack of notable backfins. They are a good deal smaller than Hydrodamalis sea cows, but also far larger than the surviving sea cows, which, together with the fact that guesstimating an animals size in the ocean is notoriously difficult, means that any "stellers sea cows sightings" are almost guaranteed to be one of them.
...Also the fact that Stellers Sea cows cannot really dive, meaning that if you *DID* find one it would probably the easiest animal on the planet to verify the sighting of, means not being entirely sure of a sighted animals identity as a stellers sea cow instantly rules out the possibility of the animal in question being a stellers sea cow. Not like we have any other records of ten meter animals shaped like a snake egg that swim like a beach ball.
@@dr.archaeopteryx5512 good point. i agree with you.
I feel like forest galante’s next video will be about why I still believe that the saber tooth cat exists
love the vids
I can't unsee the fact that Forrest doesn't blink at all
