Forrest Galante is a world-renowned wildlife biologist, conservationist, and TV host. He is known for his work in high-risk wildlife biology fieldwork, where he focuses on animals on the brink of extinction.

Phantasticus is the only production company that actively finances conservation work in exchange for filming rights and the ability to bring exposure to causes.

He has also gained popularity through his TV shows, including "Extinct or Alive" on Animal Planet, where he travels the globe searching for animals that have been deemed extinct, and "Naked and Afraid," where he scored one of the highest Primate Survival Ratings (PSRs) ever on the show.
