It truly is depressing eh. Like it’s one of the great things humans can use their powers for good for in terms of their impact but it just feels almost nihilistic that we’re doomed to do more damage than good Great thing that there are success stories.
Hey! Let's be honest! The Red Wolf reintroduction was initially successful. Old phobia of wolves came against them, with ignorant poachers deliberately undermining the reintroduction. These people even had a Facebook group dedicated to poaching wolves to prevent their comeback! This forced them into closer contact with coyotes to find mates. (They usually out-compete coyotes and keep coyote populations down.) This exposed them to diseases from coyotes and reduced their genetic diversity, making them more susceptible to disease. Competition with coyotes was nothing. Fraternization with coyotes was deadly.
Those same people are also why their classification is "controversial" because they can't handle the truth and lie despite genetic evidence, trying to force a narrative that they're just coywolves and thus shouldn't be protected or reintroduced. Wolf haters in North America are on a whole nother level of being extremely depraved individuals that unfortunately also have significant influence over certain government agencies. The lobbying power they have especially in the southern US is actually scary.
This happened in my home state of Maine as well with caribou (reindeer in Europe. They’re the same thing). Almost the entire state used to have them, and now there are 0. In the early 60s they attempted to reintroduce them after they had been extirpated, but they all either left or died off. Part of the reason they can no longer survive here is the over abundance of white tailed deer. Competition is probably a factor, but the main issue is the brain worm that white tailed deer carry. It doesn’t kill white tailed deer, but it does kill caribou and moose. The worm sits between the white tails’ brain and skull, but it burrows through the brains of moose and caribou. Quite disappointing. We are missing quite a few native mammals here. Caribou, wolverines, wolves, mountain lions, and the extinct sea mink. We used to have wapiti, but the eastern elk subspecies was hunted to extinction in the mid 1800s. Hopefully we can see all of these animals return in the future, as our ecosystem needs them, and they are wonderful creatures
@@eastbow6053 they could easily survive with human intervention, reindeer live year round at Santa's Village in NH. If the herd were simply in captivity or in the white mountains national park or mount katahdin they could bounce back
@@eastbow6053 they can survive, because they did for thousands of years. Malpractice and environmental mismanagement led to them going locally extinct. If our management of the environment improves, those animals could be reintegrated and return to the ecosystem. Besides humans, there are no predators in Maine that control the deer populations. Black bears don’t frequently hunt deer, and they only really hunt young and weak ones at that, so they don’t have much of an impact on herbivore populations. Wolves and mountain lions, however, have a massive impact on herbivore populations and behaviors. They are necessary for a healthy and balanced ecosystem
The bison in the Rothaar Mountains in Germany can also be included in this list. After the animals are less shy and cause more damage than planned, the responsible association has declared the bison to be wild animals and therefore the state is responsible for the damage, but the state argues that the association is responsible for the animals that it has released. The bison will probably be taken from the wild, whether by trapping or hunting is still an open question.
The American bison and the Wood bison of Canada as well, the American bison went from millions, so many a herd could stretch from horizon to horizon to I think around 5-6 thousand after westward expansion of the railroads and the government program to force Native Americans on to reservations by decimating a main food source. The Wood bison population was always smaller but I think deforestation hit them hard.
@@Llandraa Not the American bisons but the European bison or wisent _(Bison bonasus)_ ;) It has been (re)introduced into several places in Germany (e.g. near Cuxhaven). The problem is that Germany is the densest populated country in Europe in which such a huge and ... sometimes .., dangerous animal may cause much damage. Same discussion here about wolves.
@@greenhorn6582 I am German too. The problem with is is the profit. The forest owners don't want the bisons, because they eat sometimes tree bark, and therfore killing some trees. This is a smaller profit, so they want them extrerminated. Even if this is normal and good for the ecosystem because this bisons did create natural meadows and increast biodiversity. The same problem are wolfs for some farmers. Because investing money in measurements to keep lifestock safe, like elektric fences and dogs, is a smaller profit. Its really moustly a money problem. This people who want to make money of the forest etc... Don't want this animals, because they mean less money.
They were reintroducing Mexican Grey Wolves into my state several years back, and I think it failed for the most part. There was even a story about a woman who intentionally ran over young wolves with a snowmobile and others who'd gone out with the intention of harm.
The Red Wolf to be successful in a reintroduction would need a massive campaign in that area of coyote extermination, without it only island reintroductions will work.
There was an attempted introduction of North Is. Kokako (birds) into Fiordland. The idea was to fill the niche the extinct South Is. Kokako. It failed. A happier story is the Campbell Island Teal, few remaining were *all* captured and either brought into captivity, or translocated to Whenua Hou Island; their native Campbell Islands had all exotic predators removed from them, and the Islands were repopulated with these ducks. The species went from "critical" to "recovering"
There was a reintroduction program of the European Bison into Western Germany. The institution that released the bison declared them wild and now it is not known who has to take care of the herd, as they are causing damage in the densely populated area and debark trees (although I believe it's mostly a lack of information, that make the locals fear the bison).
Short story, ive heard that Germany helped for reintroduction of Bisons(Zimbrii), in Romania. Especially in the rezervation of Mountain Țarcului of Meridional Carphatians. And are doing well, we want to reach the number of 250 examples. Also Poland, Slovakia,Bulgaria and Latvia did.
There have been several reintroductions of mountain goats and bighorns in specific areas of the Western US that failed, most succeeded but a few specific areas did fail.
great idea, they should repopulate the Los Angeles, and San Francisco areas with them. Not the foothills or mountains, but the cities. Would probably clean up a bunch problems those areas have. I'd donate to this cause..
@@KhanMann66 no grizzly bears used to live here it doesn’t matter if humans don’t like it, we stole their land and destroyed it so they could have it back
You didn’t pay attention in history did you? Columbus didn’t sale in 1492 to find America, he sailed to find a quicker route to INDIA , rather then sailing down and around the deadly cape of South Africa as was the common manner in the day. So when they discovered land and islands while sailing west to find India that’s how the islands in the Caribbean are called the West Indies and the people on the islands called Indians, they thought they were in India originally.
When I was a young girl, my parents traveled a lot of business. I took me with. I loved traveling, where, as my older brother and sister hated it. We were in the south going through the mountains, my dad put on the brakes and stopped Andrew our attention to the walls at the edge of the road. He said,” remember this, those may be the last other red wolves.” I did, I remember, one stayed at the edge of the road while the others cross to the other side. They were beautiful… but I thought all animals with beautiful and I still do. I was born in 1947, and I think the year was between 52 and 55. I don’t remember most things in my childhood, but I remember these things, because my passion and love furniture, and all the wonders around me. As it turned out, I am autistic. What involves people I do not register, but involves animals and nature is part of me.
It was probably a large coyote or coydog if it was willing to get close enough for you to see it. Red wolves are pretty elusive by nature, and like most wolves they want nothing to do with humans.
@@Nylak-Otter Coydog was my guess at the time. It was totally brazen, hanging around the kids, pooping in the yard, snooping around the quail-cages, and even coming into the garage.
It's so sad and tragic what man is doing to the gifts that God gave us. If more people could get involved maybe then we could get the trash problem and loss of habitat under control. But what do I know?
@@Petriefied0246It's true that a god didn't create humanity, animals, planets, stars, solar systems, and galaxies. But they did make the universe itself so that there would be something after they created it. The gift that the deity gave to use was to make our own choices and the fact that we exist because of somethibg natural. The gift for us to make the choice to either destroy the planet that contains all life or the choice to protect it and ensure that life continues on. A god may not have to do much since they didn't have much to do with anything but they did try to give hints to us in their own way to push us in a certain direction. Much like how each of our parents try to give us a push to choose a path. Of course, the existence of a deity is debatable. I'm not religious, but I do believe there is some form of higher power (whether it's a deity or not) as something happened to cause a chain reaction that not only created the process of evolution, but simultaneously also created the galaxies and the expanse of the universe itself. The gift that the higher power gave us humans (humanity) was the ability to make our own choices and to see the world with our eyes, live life and learn with what we now call science so we can better understand the world around us. If we take care of our planet and take responsibility for the damages we've done, I'm pretty sure the higher power will be happy and relieved that we were able to mature as a species and show love and care for the planet that is home to all forms of life (including us humans).

Could you do a video about the Moroccan wild and the extinct animals and the reintroduction and some animals that could be still out there it will truly make for an amazing video!
Man. It really does suck to know when we artificially interfere with the ecosystem for good but just turns into another giant L. Breaks my heart that we do more damage than good sometimes. Even when that good is genuine.
As a child I thought the reintroduction of white tail deer in the pisgah national forest was a great thing, but with 60+years of hindsight I can say it was an unmitigated disaster that completely destroyed a great way of life and turned friends and neighbors into enemies over something that didn't even belong to them
Right now there is an interesting reintroduction program that is ongoing. The reintroduction of cheetas to India. Cheetas were once native to India. I hope it does succeed but it's not looking great so far.
I wondered when I saw a huge Coyote in the mountains of south east California. No one believed me when I said they looked as big as a large dog like a German Shepherd. I guess it was a Red Wolf or a Red Wolf Coyote hybrid.
The red wolf is entirely an eastern animal. There were never any red wolves anywhere near California. The large coyote you saw may have been a coyote/dog hybrid or possible a hybrid gray wolf/coyote. In the later case the wolf parent would have most likely have been an escaped or abandoned wolf that had been acquired as a pet.
@@donnievance1942 The Californian red wolf (Canis rufus redwoodii) - A descendant of captive bred red wolves that escaped from zoos/safari parks and spread across California. They are common in the redwood rainforests of California. They are similar to their ancestors, but are larger and darker in fur color.
There's has to be a sense of humility in this. Reintroduction is complicated, arguably than we perceive. We are talking about hundreds if not thousands of years of genetic inheritance and environmental balancing between the organisms. Nature simply ratios and also our own habits that fuel industries make it difficult to make these readaptations occur. And it doesn't just happen instantaneously when the habitat has since moved on. As much religion gets criticized in our present secularized societies. They have been integral in shaping socio-cultral norms within demographics that are very conscious with the ecosystem and the organisms they share with.
another very recent example for this list. In Sonthofen (southern Bavaria) beavers have shut down a railway line. Now the question is whether the beaver or the train has a greater influence on climate and environmental protection.
This one is a bit controversial both due to how it was done and the fact that the Nazis did it but they attempted to bring back the Auroch and they were successful somewhat. They tried it by breeding cows that were larger than normal and a bit more aggressive and after a few year they claimed it was successful. Unfortunately every single individual was killed during the Allied bombing raids so even if they were successful the Auroch went extinct again due to getting blown up
I think you're referring to Heck cattle. They were not all destroyed, and some populations are still maintained today. You are right that the beliefs, crimes, and politics of those who initially bred them have made them less than popular. Also, subsequent genetic testing has shown that while they superficially resemble aurochs, they are not that close genetically. A short UA-cam video on the subject: ua-cam.com/video/JTUzjlmNc9c/v-deo.htmlsi=LxdYsdTBE9LJsuRE
@CcSD2286 I looked them up and they're being used to help bring back the Auroch by crossing them with cattle breeds that have genetic traits that are close as possible to the Auroch's and releasing them into parts of Europe where the Auroch once lived and seeing how the environment is impacted by the re-introduction of the Megafauna before moving forward with further re-wilding efforts.
Add to these three the reintroduction of the European beaver in the overpopulated - and partly existing under water level - Netherlands. Not that the beavers didn't thrive. They thrived too much, causing problems by cutting down lots of beautiful old trees in classic parks and gardens. Causing flooding of highways and burrowing in dykes and levies that are intended to prevent flooding of large inhabited parts of my country. People who planned those reintroductions should have thought of that sooner... And the fifth failed reintroduction may be the program to restore the Atlantic salmon in the Rhine and Meuse river systems. Atlantic salmon died out in these European rivers around 1950. Introductions of Atlantic salmon originating from other European rivers since 1986 have failed miserably. Of the millions of young salmon stocked in these rivers in all those years only a few thousand have returned from the Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea. And the numbers of returning salmon are becoming less and less over the last few years.
People doing reintroductions of animal species rarely think trough all situations that will rise up from this. Thus when problems rise up they run away from responsibility faster than any olympic runner.
I would love to see a video about wild animals in the black market becoming someone's pet I thought about how cruel people can be when it comes to such animals as the Slow Loris
Protect the boats! Wait till they have the uncontrolled vegetation wrapped around their props. Requiring some fish finder sonar would meke the habitat safer for a natural grazer. Its win win rather than buying futures in the hydrofoil industry in a bay filled with robots with expensive service contracts.
They have only found one gene in red wolves that isn't found in either grey wolves or coyotes and that gene is probably from an extinct breed of domestic dogs used by Indians so its pretty much a given its a hybrid.😊
3:23 I think making a comeback in Israel is a bad idea because Israel and Palestine is on war right now and it might be possible the Palestinians might bomb the Ostriches because the Ostriches might be in a nearby town or city
So sad. You'd think there'd be the will to give these beautiful animals a better chance of survival. Why on earth bring manatees from Singapore instead of reintroducing the Caribbean species? Duh!
Here's hoping scientists find a way to make animals from different orders compatible for breeding , I wanna know what a Skunk/Polar Bear Hybrid would like ?
Good job team on keeping those wolves confined to zoos. You'll note that it is rarely, if ever, the people who live in the areas affect by these pests that want them reintroduced.

I think you're referring to Heck cattle. They were not all destroyed, and some populations are still maintained today. You are right that the beliefs, crimes, and politics of those who initially bred them have made them less than popular. Also, subsequent genetic testing has shown that while they superficially resemble aurochs, they are not that close genetically.
A short UA-cam video on the subject: ua-cam.com/video/JTUzjlmNc9c/v-deo.htmlsi=LxdYsdTBE9LJsuRE
@CcSD2286 I looked them up and they're being used to help bring back the Auroch by crossing them with cattle breeds that have genetic traits that are close as possible to the Auroch's and releasing them into parts of Europe where the Auroch once lived and seeing how the environment is impacted by the re-introduction of the Megafauna before moving forward with further re-wilding efforts.
I think there were some failed attempts are reintroducing Bali Mynas.
Me too
Can you do a video on asymmetrical animals?
Unfortunate but Interesting topic
How about a video on failed introductions of non-native species? Skunks and raccoons in Russia being a good example
I would like to see Steller sea cows alive in British Columbia
Stellar sea cows are completely extinct. There is no way to reestablish them.
@@donnievance1942 i mean de-extinction, in fact, using dugong's DNA i can bring back this mammal to life
I heard it's impossible to catch a shark. They just die. 100 percent of time
yeah i wouldn't be surprised, i think it's a similar thing with marlin but i'd have to double check
@@TsukiCove give me a link to a video you watched 👀. I'm curious.
Manatees look funny
they are funny and lovable
One of the most gentle animals left in the wild.
I thought all the red wolves in the Smokies were recaptured after they left the park boundaries? I didn't know they were still present there.
i hope one day elk (cervus canadienses) get reintroduced back into Europe
We introduced eight cheetahs in India last year and none of them alive now
Was that jungle on fire @0.45 Ecuador?
Add to these three the reintroduction of the European beaver in the overpopulated - and partly existing under water level - Netherlands.
Not that the beavers didn't thrive.
They thrived too much, causing problems by cutting down lots of beautiful old trees in classic parks and gardens. Causing flooding of highways and burrowing in dykes and levies that are intended to prevent flooding of large inhabited parts of my country.
People who planned those reintroductions should have thought of that sooner...
And the fifth failed reintroduction may be the program to restore the Atlantic salmon in the Rhine and Meuse river systems.
Atlantic salmon died out in these European rivers around 1950.
Introductions of Atlantic salmon originating from other European rivers since 1986 have failed miserably.
Of the millions of young salmon stocked in these rivers in all those years only a few thousand have returned from the Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea. And the numbers of returning salmon are becoming less and less over the last few years.
People doing reintroductions of animal species rarely think trough all situations that will rise up from this.
Thus when problems rise up they run away from responsibility faster than any olympic runner.
Depressing but worth learning about!
Learn and do better!
You forgot african cheetas in India
Florida Panther
When the fox and the wolf eat the farmer's sheep and chickens what would you do if you were a farmer?
Make stronger fences and chickenyards. 🤷🏼♂️
Is the red coyote the same as a coy wolf seen in residental areas possibly?
What happened to the tigers that were released on Africa?
With the ostrich reintroduction at the start "The birds seem to almost disappear" Maybe they flew off?
Ostriches can't fly. I'm amazed that any adult human being doesn't know this.
@@donnievance1942 I guess irony is dead in your household
Make a video on afrotherias
I would love to see a video about wild animals in the black market becoming someone's pet
I thought about how cruel people can be when it comes to such animals as the Slow Loris
There was a reason the animal was going extinct in the first place.
Protect the boats! Wait till they have the uncontrolled vegetation wrapped around their props. Requiring some fish finder sonar would meke the habitat safer for a natural grazer. Its win win rather than buying futures in the hydrofoil industry in a bay filled with robots with expensive service contracts.
In other words, it mostly fails because of human behavior.
👍🐒
not mission failed😭😭🤣
I hope that common ostriches come back to the Arabian peninsula
Invasive animals thrive more its just sad
Reintroduction of cheetahs in india is also not going well still 50% chance they chould make it ❤
They should reintroduce T-Rex to downtown LA.
They went extinct too long ago for T. rex reintroduction to be even hypothetically possible
1:13 you forgot red necked ostriches
It’s a subspecies🤦♂️
I wanna see a rooster in a ostrichs body, ion care.
cheetas in india
Make the red wolf pets to buy.they will thrive
They have only found one gene in red wolves that isn't found in either grey wolves or coyotes and that gene is probably from an extinct breed of domestic dogs used by Indians so its pretty much a given its a hybrid.😊
3:37 you missed eastern wolf, canis lyacon
Pretty sure eastern wolves are gray wolf subspecies
@@cartooncatboy3009 seperate species
No, it isn’t. Do you mean the red wolf?
@@cartooncatboy3009 nope, the eastern/Algonquin wolf native to central Ontario. Canis Lyacon
3:23 I think making a comeback in Israel is a bad idea because Israel and Palestine is on war right now and it might be possible the Palestinians might bomb the Ostriches because the Ostriches might be in a nearby town or city
So sad. You'd think there'd be the will to give these beautiful animals a better chance of survival. Why on earth bring manatees from Singapore instead of reintroducing the Caribbean species? Duh!
Hope they don't reintroduce red wolves in my area... already got enough problems with coyotes & foxes...
Not their problem
Here's hoping scientists find a way to make animals from different orders compatible for breeding , I wanna know what a Skunk/Polar Bear Hybrid would like ?
Florida has Skunkapes.
@@AFloridaSon Skunkapes-- also known as Trump followers.
Good job team on keeping those wolves confined to zoos. You'll note that it is rarely, if ever, the people who live in the areas affect by these pests that want them reintroduced.
It's pronounced Guadeloupe, not Guadeloupe
Guadalop?😂😂😂 i think its Guadalopé.....
look it up, that's how you say it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guadeloupe
Palestinian not Israel 🇵🇸
As a Palestinian supporter, 💀
Fantastic Video as always!! :) 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ❤❤💖💖
thank you as always :)
@@TsukiCove Your Welcome 🤗
Hard to reintroduce them if Japans waiting with a fork 🍴
Wisent 🦬 is a introduction that I hope to be successful with as a European we don’t get much all we get is foxes boars deer a few bears wolf raccoons martins squirrels rabbits and I think raccoons and that’s not much😢❤
