Extinct or Alive is an American wildlife documentary television programme produced for Animal Planet by Hot Snakes Media of New York City, the United States. It is hosted by wildlife biologist and television personality Forrest Galante, who travels to different locations around the globe to learn about possibly extinct animals and whether or not there is a chance that they may still be extant. The series has claimed to of been involved in the rediscoveries of the Fernandina Island Galápagos tortoise and Rio Apaporis caiman, along with the possible rediscoveries of the Zanzibar leopard and Cape lion Additionally, the series recorded the first ever footage of Miller's langur. however, aside from the Miller's Langur, it is still debated by scientists and there is yet to be any evidence that Forrest Galante or any of the group actually found these animals, aside from a few sharks which were already known to not be extinct.
