The Tasmanian tiger, also known as Thylacine, is an animal I looked for on Extinct or Alive. It is one of the most well-known extinct animals, and this man named Zack may have caught it on camera. Could this be proof thylacine is still alive?
Forrest Galante is a world-renowned wildlife biologist and TV Host. His mission is to inspire and educate people about animals and adventure through the media, including hosting programs on Discovery Channel, on-camera expert interviews, and production of his own wildlife and natural history shows.
Some really compelling footage from April 2024. The photographer doesn't want to be identified so there's a chance it's a hoax, but the host has run it by a few photography/wildlife experts who seemed optimistic. The photos begin at 25 minutes in and don't strike me as AI generated.
Just dropping this article here that Forrest Galante is first and foremost a TV host, not a scientist and a fraud who steals other people's years of research

tldr; A Columbian scientist Sergio Balaguera-Reina did science the right way, did his PhD, work with local people, presented his findings in scientific conferences and finally published a paper in scientific journal about rediscovery of caiman subspecies thought to be extinct in 2018. A year later Gallante then brings a TV crew, gives no credit nor acknowledgement to Balaguera-Reina's research, wrassle some crocodile on camera, and claimed on camera that he personally had rediscovered the caiman subspecies.
