I remember you could find them in Red Dead Redemption 2. Like every other animals, you could hunt them even if they were hard to find. But as soon as you shot 1, the game would tell you "the species is endangered". Shoot 15, "population is dwindling and facing extinction". Shoot 25, "The Carolina Parakeet species has been wiped from the face of the Earth". Knowing that beforehand I never killed a single one. It made me feel too bad. A sad tribute quite unexpected in a game like this.
Wow! Yet another excellent video with fascinating research and striking visuals! Being from the U.S. and in my 50s, I remember a time when a number of N.American Raptors were nearly lost due to the pesticide DDT. As an outdoor education teacher, it has been astounding to see how robustly a number of these raptor species have rebounded since DDT was banned in the U.S.A.
Thank you i really appreciate it. Yes i have quite a few videos about DDT and it's affects but it just goes to show what can happen if the right amount of time, money and effort are put in to saving a species. It would've been tragic if the bald eagle was lost but luckily it was one of the birds to bounce back very strongly.
There's also Dryococelus australis or the Lord Howe Island stick insect. Another Australian species, though these are from the Lord Howe Island group in the Tasman Sea between Australia and NZ. When they were very common, they were used as bait for fishing. However, when the supply ship SS Makambo ran aground on the island in 1918 and established a rat population, this made many believe they were extinct. But in 1964, climbers visiting Ball's Pyramid found a dead one. In subsequent years, they found more dead ones. In 2001, scientists hypothesized that there was sufficient vegetation on the islet to support a population of the insects, and, with two assistants, travelled there to investigate further. They deduced that they would need to return after dark, when the insects are active, to have the best chance of finding living specimens. Carlile returned with local ranger Dean Hiscox and, with a camera and flashlights, scrambled back up the slopes. They discovered a small population of 24 insects living beneath a Melaleuca shrub. In 2003, a research team collected two breeding pairs and after initial difficulties, the insects were successfully bred in captivity in Melbourne. As of April 2012, the Melbourne Zoo had reportedly bred over 9,000 of the insects. And back in 2018, the CEO of the Lord Howe Island Board had approved a plan to eradicate the rat population to reintroduce the stick insect to the main island.
@@TsukiCoveIf you make a Part 2 . Will you be adding the Wallace's Giant Bee and the Ivory Billed Woodpecker? I can't remember the article but it claimed the Ivory Billed Woodpecker survived by hiding in deep forests and fleeing from all human contact.
Bro your videos are the best can you make one on 5 of the earliest national parks, why they were founded and what species are native to there? Also first I guess
Don’t think it has been confirmed yet, molecular studies are still ongoing with alleged C. lopis in captivity. Chitala taxonomy is a mess to begin with and lopis is/was part of a complex of lookalike species that can’t be told apart without dna testing.
Mountain pygmy possum, New Holland mouse, Greater bamboo lemur, Dinosaur ant, Black-footed ferret, Guam rail, Madagascan Serpent Eagle, Terror skink, Wooly flying squirrel, Gilbert's potoroo, Forest owlet, Edward's pheasant, La gomera giant lizard, Lord howe island stick insect, Waigeo brush-turkey, Javan elephant and so on.
The Voeltzkow's Chameleon in Madagascar was thought to be extinct for around 100 years until found again on hotel grounds in a tree in Madagascar, where majority of the species of chameleons are native to. :)
Another great video. It is good to hear that some animals that we thought had gone are hanging on there, but with such tiny populations, even if completely protected they are vulnerable because of the limited gene pool. Nice to see a shot of the takahe at the end - they are doing OK, but only because of unremitting work to control predators. Sadly, in New Zealand, if humans were wiped out tomorrow, many if not most of our endemic species would soon follow due to introduced predators.
Another option from Australia... the Mountain Pygmy possum. Thought extinct since the discovery of bones in a cave in 1895. That is until 1966 when it was (re)discovered at a ski resort in the alpine mountains of Victoria, alive and kicking. Unfortunately, there are only a few small populations of them left and it is classified as critically endangered.
Bisons should be on the list, they’re famous for it. I’m not 100% sure about the history, but at one point they were considered extinct due to the over hunting from the fur trade and colonizers killing them off as they were the main food source for indigenous peoples. True bison are technically considered ecologically extinct, but they’re still around. Just in small numbers.
My pet crested gecko is an example lazarus taxon, it was thought to have gone extinct but a bunch of them were found on new caledonia and now its the most popular gecko in the pet trade after the leopard gecko.
The buffalo. Both European and American Buffalo. An example so overt it is covert. What did the Buffalo say to his boy as he headed off to school? Bison!
@@Zilch.0 yup, back in 2003. Made it all the way to birth, but died due to a lung defect. I'm curious what would happen if we tried again now, with how much the tech has progressed
Mr. Tsuki, I truly enjoy your videos and appreciate your research. But climate change is never a reason for extinction. Extinction is always due to the responsibility, or more accurately, the irresponsibility of man.
it's a shame the countries should give their threatened animals to other rich countries like the US and UK for taking care, if they can't offer protection
I'm glad that the realisation of Australia's uniqueness is starting to come through at least on a local level. This is because of the work of activists, conservationists, educators and those who enjoy being outside. With foxes, cats and cane toads I'd say shoot them on sight in Australia. And put the cane toads in a bag and dispose of them safely. Next step is rewilding and restoring. In Australia that means a ban on grasslawns something we should do everywhere actually, they're a biodiversity nightmare, a soil health nightmare (mainly because they suck out all the nutrients) and a water usage disaster.
@@sorreldislikespotatoes9882 because they can be absolutely horrible. They pretty much epitomize all of the disgusting savagery that a human without morals or empathy has.
If only the Carolina Parakeet could come back from extinction 😢
Yes! Them and the passenger pigeon.
I remember you could find them in Red Dead Redemption 2. Like every other animals, you could hunt them even if they were hard to find.
But as soon as you shot 1, the game would tell you "the species is endangered".
Shoot 15, "population is dwindling and facing extinction".

Or the Paradise Parrot
Then start with the people… and then fix the eco system and then start again if you disagree with what I said……

i love your vids man keep at them
I feel like the tree lobster, or lord Howe island stick bug, would have fit well on this list.
So would the black-footed ferret
Amazing video! If you ever make a part 2, consider adding the earless dragon. It was recently rediscovered.
yes i saw that story the other day, it's very interesting and if i do a part two i will include it thanks :)

thanks i appreciate it and i'm sure i can get around to that at some point :)
@@TsukiCove Ok cool
The Santa Marta sabrewing has been always a elusive bird. It´s been lost to science twice.
Another great video. The sad thing is we are just not doing enough.
next list maybe you can add giant featherback fish ( chitala lopis ). its declare extinct at 1990 and just rediscovered recently
wait, it got recently rediscovered?? if you have a link i would love to read about that 🥺

You are extremely amazing at explaining this stuff keep it up
Do you think you could do a video taking about laughing owl please?
i got a video idea, invasive species that help control other invasive species, like the Aesculapian snake going after grey squirrels in the uk.
I love you videos. It would be awesome if you could include the Aleutian Islands goose in one of your videos they have a great come back story.
I love your videos!❤
1:53 I used live down the road from where that pic was taken
Crested Geckos are another one, crazy considering how they are like the 2nd most popular pet gecko nowadays (we so back). Though still VN in the wild.

Ayo the Bornean Pygmy Elephant came back from the dead!! People thought it was an extinct species
The Oregon Zoo has a female Pygmy Borneo Elephant 🐘.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
@@davidwesley2525 NOICE🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
Would The Pygmy Right Whale count, with it's classification as a cetothere whale?
1:19-23 The fact that it lived up to it's name being nocturnal was not 100% known for years.

could u do endangered Caribbean animals

could u make a list invasive species in Brazil?
I hope you could feature on Philippine wildlife especially the Red Jungle Fowls or the Philippine Warty pig
I’ve worked catching mahogany gliders! they’re an absolute bastard to find so i don’t doubt that they were hiding
Finally a TH-cam Channel that got recommended that isnt complete dogshit, keep up the videos :)
*Life will find a way*
Great video
Wouldn't it be incredible if some species of small dinosaurs were brought back from the dead
If they escape (depending on the dinosaur species) it would be over for many ecosystems
@@Acridotheresfuscus I was thinking of small dinosaurs like velociraptor or compsagnathus
@@arkprice79 If we're talking about Jurassic park compies. Then it's definitely over for ecosystems. Velociraptors would cause problems too.
@rodan6442 I'm talking about real-life compys and velociraptors
@@arkprice79 That'd be better. But still pretty bad.
I can't believe it. It's a miracle. Project Colossus is happening next year!
Good video but much more graphic than I expected
Can't this fungs be used to combat cane toad in Australia?
What would happen to the endangered indigenous frogs and toads?
You could add the Jamaican Iguana to that list.
Another one to note is crested geckos were believed to be extinct till they were rediscovered in 1994
Do you consider gorillas the elephants of primates?
people that go against the extermination of feral cats and foxes in australia hate ground parrots, gliders, cackatoos, and wallabys
What’s your opinion on de-extinction? Do you think it is worth the time and resources?
honestly most of the time it's not and would make animals that only exist for us to display
Do top 10 country's who are the strictest in exotic pet ownership

If only the sabertooth tiger could come back for population control 😂
The Cross River gorilla is pretty much on his death bed
imagine if dinosaurus were found again😂
Why would u bring foxes , some1 said that somewhere 😂
31 minutes ❤
The buffalo. Both European and American Buffalo. An example so overt it is covert.
What did the Buffalo say to his boy as he headed off to school? Bison!
They all used their totems of undying
Should point out the European Starling and House Sparrow as invasive species in the US.
How did they make their way to North America?
European settlers brought them thinking they would improve the environment. Not to mention some were pets and that got released@@waragque
A long time ago, the countries of Oceania lived together in harmony, but everything changed when the Europeans attacked!
"Iconic kākāpō" I ain't never heard of no kakapo
Because you've never watched the viral BBC video of the kakapo mating with a human because they thought the human was a female.
Figure of speech, I know, but none of these animals "came back from the dead". We were just wrong when we thought they'd gone extinct.
I think the only species to truly hold that title is the Pyrenean Ibex, but it didn't last a day before it died again
@@CrownofMischief They tried cloning it?
@@Zilch.0 yup, back in 2003. Made it all the way to birth, but died due to a lung defect. I'm curious what would happen if we tried again now, with how much the tech has progressed

I'm pretty fucking sure dinosaurs are gone.
it's a shame the countries should give their threatened animals to other rich countries like the US and UK for taking care, if they can't offer protection
What?
You can just watch the list of recently extinct animals, and half of them are from the US.
