If yall could somehow get the budget for an "independent" Extinct or Alive, it would be amazing

Extinct Or Alive. The ONLY cable adventure show to EVER find what they were looking for. Greatest adventure show all-time!

The Eastern Mountain Lion! My Grandfather always talked about lions in southern Missouri. Everyone thought he was seeing large bobcats. He grew up hunting and fishing in his area. In fact he lived off of the land his entire life, and was a commercial fisherman on the Mississippi River. He never made exaggerations about the animals that were in the woods around his property. He insisted that he had seen Mountain Lions. Game cams have since captured pics of lions in an area only 20 miles from his home. I would love to see him vindicated! He taught me everything about hunting and conservation that I know!

extinct or alive V2 with these 3 will be the perfect balance of nature, animals and soo much humor. please make this a thing

Please do this! Extinct or alive was my favorite show. Pissed they cancelled it

They should talk with BRCC, those guys love Forrest and Extinct or Alive type work would be a GREAT fit for the Free Range American project. In 2020 Forrest dropped in at the BRCC facility in Salt Lake City and they immediately put him on the FRA podcast and fan boy'd on him for 1.5 hours. They love the work Forrest does.

PLEASE DO THE EASTERN MOUNTAIN LION. My little brother said he saw one when we were kids that was 17 years ago and there have always been sightings since I was little I live in the mountains of Pennsylvania

I live in Wichita Kansas and I 100% seen a mountain lion a couple feet in front of me on my way to work at 5am. There were several people catch this animal on doorbell cameras. The cougar sounds were absolutely crazy it sounded like the videos.

I saw a cougar in Shawnee National Forest on the border of Illinois and Kentucky in 2015 looked him right in the face. Been telling people they are still out there ever since.

I Live in Southeast Pennsylvania, and I have seen a cougar during my commute to college in the spring of 2019. Everyone has told me it was a cat or a bobcat, but the damn thing was at least 80+ lbs. Also that same year during a camp out in my buddies backyard, we all got unbelievably hammered and at around 3:30/4 am the few of us remaining were around the campfire when, what i can only describe as a cougar roar (like that raspy scream) came from the bushes where my friend was taking a drunken whizz. The sound alone made me stone cold sober and it awoke people that had fallen asleep. At least 7 of us heard the exact same sound and we all looked online for some sort of explanation, only to understand that what we heard was 1000% a mountain lion. So I too hate the notion that there's "no cougars" in Pennsylvania because they are definitely here. Whether it's the Eastern, or the common Mountain Lion i don't know but I'm sure a lot of people would love to see you guys check it out one day!

As far as the “Eastern Mountain Lion” I live in Kentucky and have seen trail cam footage twice and Security camera once, of live- definitive mountain lions.

I saw a panther in eastern North Carolina while hunting. Nobody believed me and when I contacted the wildlife resource commission about it, they basically laughed in my face and said I was full of it. They told me that no matter how many sightings they have come in, the eastern mountain lion (panther) is extinct and that’s that. It’s crazy

Interested in seeing the Eastern lion video! I have seen one in Quebec

Extinct or Alive was the only reason I have had to watch Animal Planet since Steve Irwin. They are nuts to let the show go. Animal Planet should be renamed people who work outdoors or near animals network.

I really think netflix should pick this show up and give you a great budget to make it worth the way you want it to and make some good money.

You guys did a wonderful job! I hope you guys bring the show back !!!

You’ve gotta do it!

I am sad to hear that Extinct or Alive is now actually extinct. It was a very good series.

should we even be surprised that they canned such a good show

I've seen a mountain lion in the Clendenin area of West Virginia, was creeping up on a guy in a gas station parking lot.

We need a new season of Extinct or alive 4real!

Im actually from PA, born and raised. To kinda back what you were saying about the cougars, I had no idea whatsoever they were classified extinct and i dont think anyone i know would either. Probably the opposite rather.

My daughter and I saw a cougar walk across a back road in north western NJ just last year. On its way towards a farm coming from the mountains we live in. Period, both of us saw and it was a perfect view. I did not think much of it other than being excited to see one. Come to find out they are “extinct” here. That’s completely bs.

Of fucking course we want you guys to continue the show! I want that more than life itself

I just want a show with Forrest finding and talking about animals.

All those ideas sound awesome for an independent extinct or alive. I hope you guys can make it happen

The problem with an "Eastern" mountain lion is the possibility of release from one of those nutty rescue places. You can't really prove its a natural population.

I can say as an avid hunter/fisherman in Pennsylvania there are 2 things that make a mountain lion sighting hard to believe when you hear them… 1. There are bobcats here but people don’t see them often to get familiar with them. Their size is easy to over estimate because of all of our hills distorting distance estimates. 2. We have a shit ton of hunters and a lot of those boys are running on Busch camo cans.

back around 2005 i saw the face of a large cat watching my friend and I play basketball from a tree line in suburban Boston. Every time i see a picture of a mountain lion i am reminded of that face

My family had a camp in remote potter county Pennsylvania and my family had personally known of cougars on the mountain where it's located. I've heard them going there growing up and it was well known. I never even knew they were extinct, I thought it was known they were there

I live in southern Alberta on the prairies and we have eastern Mountain lions here a few times a year and I always see tracks out hunting. Come up here I’ll show you one for your next episode Alberta also has a very rare lizard worth looking into that our province refuses to recognize. Cheers guys! Much love for what y’all are doing!

The eastern cougar sightings are also a common subject brought up where I live in New Brunswick Canada. I have seen one with my friend about 12 years ago and I know many others that have claimed too see one as well. I’ve worked at our Department of Natural Resources for the past 2 years as a summer student working wildfires and there is a ranger that is certain he saw one as well. I live in Northern New Brunswick but I would say the majority of sightings come from south, south west NB near the Maine border.

I didn't know that about the eastern mountain lions. I live in east Tennessee and on my mountain there is a mated pair of lions. One is a black pather and the other is a normal mountain lion. We see them on game trail cameras all the time

My dad owned a restaurant and I remember around 2010 a customer came in with trail cam photos of two mountain lions on his hunting property in north Louisiana. I’ve also seen tracks on our hunting lease, that appeared to look like a mountain lion track.

Saw a mountain lion here in MA, got video of it and paw measurements. Sent it to Mass fish and game and they denied it saying that they are not here. Tails almost on the ground, they said it was a bobcat. No no no

2 things in america 1. the California alps giant salamander(4-6feet) reports 1910-1940 2. the giant salamanders (3-4feet) in eastern america (Louisiana Arkansas) reports in the 1970's-1980's.

The guy that taught me how to deer hunt in the 90s in the Uwharrie national forest in NC told me there were cougar sightings in Uwharrie and it was common knowledge they were there.

As a descendent of William Penn (Founded of Pennsylvania). Penn (Old English)= Home of Sylvannia (Old English)= Rolling Trees/Hills of trees. Now as a Kansan who lives in Wichita where we’ve had dozens of Mountain Lion sightings, I’d like to believe that there’s definitely a small population of Mountain Lions on the east coast along the Appalachian’s.

Please bring Extinct or Alive! We really want to see Forrest go on more adventures in the field

I know of a few hunters that have mountain lion on game cam in the northern half of New Hampshire! They have been shown to NH fish and game but they dismiss the videos because we don’t have the funding to put together for protection (or so they say)

The mountain lion/cougar expedition would be great. Being from Michigan there are mountain lions here and the state does say they are just transient animals and there is no breeding population here. Hard to believe that humans wiped all of them out even in the rugged and backwoods terrain in the Upper Peninsula seems the me that the govt is just trying to cover something up

Maybe the Discovery Channel or National Geographic would pick the show up. It's too good to let it die, or should I say "go extinct". This program needs to continue.

Please bring the show back ASAP I love wat y'all doing

Would be awesome to see an episode

I live in Pennsylvania. We have a mountian house near Wellsboro. No one we ever met has ever said they've seen a mountain lion; even the elders of the community. Yet, at the same time, the bobcat itself is extremely elusive. We only seen one in the past 20 years.

I'm so lost, I grew up in south Florida went to the glades with my folks all the time I thought a puma was a puma across this country lol

Lmao right when I thought how do they have all these crisp photos if it’s extinct he says the same thing. I would definitely watch a show with you guys in it lol

I heard a cougar outside my tent while camping in Dayton Tn. Went back there a few years later and overheard locals saying they saw a cougar in the same area.

I live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. People around swear up and down they have seen and still see them regularly.

In Montgomery county Texas this one neighborhood has had a shitload of panther sightings, it's exciting to think they are making a comeback in my area

I really wish the show would come back I miss the extinct or alive

A straight man funny man stick is what made Mythbuster so successful. That could be a successful formula.

i didnt even know that the eastern cougar was suppose to be extinct in michigan i know so many people who have seen one and im pretty sure a family friend of mine had a picture on a trail cam and an uncle of mine showed me a cat track that was way bigger then a bobcat in the northern lower pennisula

Dude I would totally love to see a video like that. A mini documentary, don’t even have to be professionally filmed of edited

I grew up in Central Pa... Highschool is known as the Mountain Lions lol... although they are not nearly as common as they once were, you get out of the towns and head up into the mountains/densely wooded areas it's very common to hear about them or see trail cam footage of a cougar...they are very sly animals so it's extremely hard or damn near impossible to spot them during the day but definitely can be heard at night...I've seen a few over the years, if your a hunter from the area then you've probably caught them on camera or have seen/heard them roaming about... again they are not nearly as common as they were when I was a kid

I’m from the mountains in PA. There are countless mountain lion sightings. The game commission constantly just blows it off.

Would love to see some expeditions searching for these extinct animals!

As someone from Georgia I can confirm that the Eastern Mountain Lion is 100% still around.

There's been multiple sightings of mountain lions in Indiana and the DNR even at one point had a hiking trail taped off because they found tracks right next to the trail

Would love to see a show on the Eastern Mountain Lion!

There was a massive mountain lion killed in Trop County GA, there have also been multiple trail cam pictures in Stewart county GA from some of our neighbors

I live in North Eastern PA, Pike County in the Pocono mountains to be specific, and about 10 years ago, when I was a teenager, I saw a mountain lion clear as day. I was with my sister fishing at a pound maybe 1/4 from our house. She was at the south east corner of the pond and I decided to head to the north central part. This is a man made pond, with a large ridge that went into a man made marsh off the north face. When I crested the ridge, at MOST 200 feet away was a mountain lion about the size of a juiced-to-the-gills corn fed German Shepard. It was lying with it's back to me, with what appeared to be a partially eaten and rotting deer carcass just beyond it. I stood there for about 10 seconds before I mustered the courage to move, making my way down the ridge, back around the pond, telling my sister what I saw, and got the fuck out of there. We told out parents, they believed us but since we maybe sorta kinda were totally trespassing on a crotchety old man's land to fish for sun fish, not to report it to Fish and Game. To this day I have no earthly idea how that lion did not hear or smell me. Maybe it did and simply did not care enough to let me know, but for whatever reason, I'm glad teenage me wasn't the first death by mountain lion in PA in God knows how long. I hope you guys make your way to PA some day to look for one, I'm sure if anyone could find one it'd be you guys.

Now if you guys don’t do this I will be very disappointed so now you have to do it sorry. I’d rather the Eastern Cougar/Mountain Lion so I can watch Retep protect Forrest & Pat if things get dicey.

In the last 20 years two extinct species of mammal were found in Michigan, the wolverine and the mountain lion. Both were photographed many times. The first sightings in 100 years.

Cougars were introduced back into Northern Illinois by the Fish & Game several years ago. AND THEY DIDN'T TELL ANYONE! All of a sudden farmers start reporting mangled cows and horses. If course the government denied the existence of the cats. It took a FOIA order & game camera footage before F&G would admit to releasing the animals.

as someone who lived in Appalachian Mtns, PA. it's well known there are cougars, you look out for them like you do black bears. few buddies have seen one on a hunt

I saw a mountain lion in Tennessee in the middle of the night while on the highway. I was the only one on the road at the time in a high altitude, wooded area. It was eating some roadkill it was pulling into the woods. I have NEVER seen a cat that big here.

You should come out to eastern North Carolina to look for the eastern cougar. There has been multiple sightings in the Angola and green swamp game lands

I live in southern Louisiana and on a deer trail camera we got a shot that you can clearly see a large feline tail.

Do it on the KZfaq channel son. We don’t need a big production. I’m from WV, there are a ton of Mtn lion sightings. Idk if they’ve officially acknowledged they’re here but they definitely are. That would be a dope episode!

I'd love to see that. I live in WV and I have seen a Mountain lion in the early 2000's.

I would absolutely love to see you guys do an extinct or alive on KZfaq.

The Maine cougar definitely would be a great one to look into. Loads of evidence that they still persist in small numbers up here. I know of a few areas in the state where you might have a good chance and seeing one. Shoot me a DM and I can get you the spot info if you decide to go out there

Im from PA. This video gave me a brain blast memory. I remember hearing when I was younger that mountain lions were released into the area to help control deer population. Whether there's any truth or substance to that, i have no clue but its definitely something ive heard before.

I used to live in Pennsylvania and we would always go to my aunts house to hunt, my cousin had different trail cam pictures of a mountain lion all over the mountain side

We road cruised a DOR rainbow last summer. My friend kept it as a wet specimen. It was a gravid female. The most beautiful farancia hands down.

There was a panther spotted in Hernando Mississippi a few years ago

Many sightings of the Eastern Mountain Lion here in Northern NJ!

There has been a sighting of a mountain lion in Qc in the suburbs

The mountain lion got hit on the merrit parkway in Milford, ct where I live. I used to live in Woodbridge ct and it neighbored Bethany, CT which borders the housatonic river valley. I have seen mountain lions there while driving in the evening as a kid going home from lacrosse practice. The Naugatuck state forest would be a great place to look.

Man I want the show to come back so bad and eastern mountain lions would be so sick mountain lions being a top 5 animal for me

Eastern mountain lion is still here in Pennsylvania. Grandfather has seen one on the border of his property. He talked to a fish and game guy and the official said the same thing Forrest did. He said “for some reason they don’t recognize that the eastern is still here. They will never say it officially, but I have had to dispose of four roadkill victims” in his time with fish and game.

I’ve seen mountain lions in northern Minnesota. Never knew they were supposedly extinct.

I'm sure I saw a mountain lion just across the bridge from Ottawa this year 2022. Blew my mind and scared my dog.

What bonus episode is this clip from ?

We need season 3!!!!!!!

The Rainbow Snake is a aquatic species that lives throughout the Coastal plains of the Southeastern United States.

A church near my house in upstate SC got a mountain lion on camera in their cemetery. All they did was tell everyone in the neighborhood not to go outside at night for a few days!

I live next to Oak Ridge, TN (east TN). Few months ago a mountain lion ran out in front of me one night close to Oak Ridge National Laboratory. No doubt it was a lion, long thick tail, plus it leaped over a retaining wall effortlessly. TWRA won't admit they're in this area but they are.

I found your channel and idea of bringing back extinct or alive gave me semi, is there any update?

I live on a farm in North Georgia a few years ago I kept finding carcasses in this ditch that runs down from my pond , dead turkeys , cows , skunks , all kinds of dead animals. I took my dog down there to see what we could find. Posted up in that ditch eyeing my cows , was a mountain lion / panther. It was a dark grey big cat , I swear on my life. I got lucky it didn’t see me

I’ve seen a mountain lion in the suburbs north of Boston and many people in my neighborhood had similar sightings all throughout my life. For sure real. It was a cat the size of a small deer, no mistaking it.

Indiana has mountain lions still. We get notifications ab them once every few years. There’s also a rumor of a few balck bears around us. And we’re like north of Indy, mostly farmland

There are mountain lions in the east.I know 2 separate people that have them on game cams. One was in Pennsylvania and the other was in Upstate NY. They are said to be released by fish and game for deer population control. There was a farmer who called the NY game commission and told them he had a large cougar eating his live stock. They told him he is mistaken and that there are no cougars. He shot it and called them out and they came and fined him. It was very large about 175 lbs. You can just look up the story it was about 10 years ago. The 2 trail cam ones both had radio collars.

With all the trail cameras everywhere these days, people would be getting pictures of an eastern mountain lion if it still existed.

I would be down to go on an investigation. There's a lot of chatter in Northwestern CT of Cougars for years now. CT says the same as Pennsylvania.

Come to nova scotia to find the eastern cougar

I would love to watch it

When I worked in the Kentucky coalmines there were rumors of people seeing the mountain lion

Please do another extinct or alive episode 🙏
