      Rly bc he literally took credit from a specialist for the caiman he found in Extinct or Alive. The other man did all the work reached out to Forrest told him exactly where to find it and Forrest put it on his show yet not one mention of the actual man who found them

    Forest my friend. You and your grandfathers discoveries are simply amazing and i know hed be beaming with pride over your achievements !
    Your name is ironic but in a good way, i have followed and noted your discoveries from h2 to here to your shorts aswell as appearances in jre, there is something simply likeable and almost family like about you, you just inspire to learn and want to do better by nature and understand more and i have forever told people to look you up wether by word of mouth or discussions on here. I have the same bug as you but just not as strong a case, nature both captivates and terrifies me lol 😅 ! Everyone should know your name in my opinion. It struck me deep even when you knew you where being scammed was it for leopards im zanzibar ? You still paid out your own pocket for that 1% chance, i knew then you where a real one !
    If i remember correctly (had a few glasses) you have a family....well that kids got some big shoes to fill and something gigantic and romantic to look up to 😊
    Seriously brother, you are the steve irwin of this age, everytime i hear or read your name attached i get overwhelmed with excitement and i can only hope your approach and demeanor inspires a whole new attitude....the forest galante institution/legacy/foundation...got a ring to it 😊 i think it would be a great idea to teach whole generations with your knowledge outwith social media, you deserve so much better for what you do and how passionate you are. Keep it up please mate, i cant wait to see you hit the congo hunting dinosaurs and that basin you think eremotherium or whatever is lurking in ! Id follow you blind in the wild lol and id donate what i could to the cause and i know many other curious minds would as you come across nothing but genuine and trustworthy and worth the risk !

    What a find! Congratulations to you and all that were involved!
    Now the only question's what to do with the thing...I'd be so worried about it, like, letting it go back into the wild where it'd come from like I can't help but to picture the second whoever releases it and they turn their back walking away soon as it's out of eye and earshot, some predator or hungry bird swoops down scooping it up and devouring it. But to try to keep it just in captivity is nearly as problematic, and just as devastating.
    It's almost kind of like, if someone's real adamant trying to talk you into wrestlin' them, perhaps even bullyin' you, to try to get you to do so, but the person wanting to wrestle has brittle bone disease or an equally, potentially hazardous, condition, with you being well aware that they have it... Yea, just like that! LmMFaO!!! ;) :P :o)

    My parentes are from chile but im born and raised in europe.
    But I remember my trivs back to chile around the Valparaiso area. I always asked if there are venomus snakes nor insects.. ive was always tolv that there is just this one tiny spider (Araña del rincon) that could kill you, and that the only snake in that area was a small as a big worm.
    I Wonder how many people around the world have seen or known animals they are not aware of what animals are registered and what animals are not?
