7 Extinct Animals We Wish Were Brought Back to Life

there are some extinct animals out there. that definitely need to be resurrected. let's talk about that good mythical. morning thank you for making us a part. of your daily routine and for inviting. your friends to do the same okay most of. the species of animals that have ever. existed are extinct that's just the way. it goes do you come unto this world and. then you die sorry everybody faces it on. a species level yeah even in all.

individuals but occasionally there's a. species that I'm like a bull if we. brought that back some pretty awesome. stuff could happen so I've made a list. of those now I want to keep in mind I. want you to keep in mind something most. of this animals on this list went. extinct because of humans now I want all. these animals to come back but my theory. is is that if we brought these animals. back they would probably be taking. advantage of exploited by people like. they always like we like to do with. animals you know we'd like to use.

animals for entertaining I do not. exploit our consumption and so I'm just. gonna eat animals yeah on a couple of. things that might happen if we were to. bring these animals back up their life. which could happen all right the first. one is the laughing owl the laughing owl. also known as the wake owl or the white. face towel was an owl found in New. Zealand in 1840 pretty recently I've. never heard of this but the last one was. found dead in Canterbury New Zealand on. July 5th 1914 you know who laughs last. he's not a is not a laughing owl because.

they're extinct can't laugh oh he left. he left one last time he merely laughed. last is the last laughing owl that's a. good whatever I've laughs put that on a. t-shirt he apparently sounded like a. madman laughing that's what the owl. actually says well how about that all. right well you here try here I think if. we were to bring this thing back rich. people would use it rich people with bad.

senses of humor would use it to laugh at. their jokes okay for exit for instance. knock knock who's there. Doris Doris who Doris locked. that's why I'm knocking cue the owl. maybe not okay. I think this is my favorite on the list. number two the giant sloth now you know. what a modern-day sloth looks like yeah. this thing was four tons and 20 feet. tall from head to tail and it was a.

slow-moving plant eater you know but. eater but he was a sloth. so he was totally harmless this thing. would make a great pet I'm just saying. that I think that there would be people. who would give this to spoiled children. you know Tommy go play with your giant. sloth he can't hurt you now you do it. you give it to a spoiled tongue and then. this house is gonna be more small like. why isn't he moving faster kind of a. thing it's just gonna get worse okay how. about the dodo bird when you think. extinct animals you think dodo bird my. mom used to use this often to refer to.

stupid people. he's a dodo bird she'd said that quite. because they would go extinct well the. reason that they had the reputation for. being stupid was not because they were. stupid but because they basically. adapted and evolved on an island apart. from humans so here they are they have. absolutely no fear of humans so when. humans show up there's just a fat. flightless bird that's like human I. don't care and of course they look like. something you want to eat so humans just. go up there and cut their heads off and.

then you know fry them up which is. exactly what I think would happen if you. brought these back somebody out there. somebody with the entrepreneurial spirit. would open up Kentucky Fried dodo bird. and I got to admit I'd probably go to it. I mean I am human I like chicken I can. imagine that a chicken like about this. big would be even better. I'm sitting it out of this there golden. toad okay the golden toad lived in the. cloud forests of Costa Rica this thing. was only discovered 50 years ago and.

there aren't he gone huh by a guy named. Jay savage very rare he thought that he. had actually found something that a. prankster had put in the wild because it. was so brightly colored he was like. somebody must be up here in the cloud. force painting the Franck's with. rust-oleum. I mean I don't know what I don't know. exactly what what why he thought that. but he was convinced that it was a. prankster had done this a prankster okay. you know you know frog painting. prankster but. by 1989 they had seen zero of them and.

they think it's because of climate. change the fact that their habitat. basically got altered and now there's no. more of them well that are the. pranksters had better things to do like. put cellophane over toilet seats and you. know paint under bridges. those are graffiti artists that's not. really a prey artistic expression oh. sorry. it's called tagging link not Facebook. yet but he died kinda frog they were. painting frogs you know moved on I. seriously think that if you were to. bring this back this is the kind of. thing a rapper would have in like a. terrarium inside of his house he's like.

you seen my golden golden toe baby you. know and it's like come to my chair. areum I could see Kanye West would have. one of these next to as a marble. conference table yeah the Irish deer or. elk this is what the largest deer to. ever live it was that's amazing all the. way from Ireland to northern Asia and. Africa about seven feet at the shoulder. and listen the antlers were 11 feet. across 11 feet across this thing. obviously was hunted to extinction by.

humans and I think if you were to bring. this back there would be quite a few of. these heads gracing the mantles of many. a southern American home oh yeah my. father-in-law would have he'd have to. take down the three deer in his living. room in order to make room for that one. thing a big deer could you imagine that. but he would do it and I you could you. could put kids up there to sleep like. boom beds there's an idea you carry. stuff up there. the stellar like this is alive the. stellar sea cow now you've seen a.

manatee right this thing is essentially. actually I haven't not in person. you'd like to oh you didn't swear that. time in Florida I went swimming with. Eric and Wayne you didn't go I swam with. the manatees man it was was one of the. best experiences of my life I hate that. you missed that well if they if you. bring back a giant when I'll be sure to. show well I'm not personally responsible. for bringing these back that's the. scientists this ain't just a bigger. ceased chaos he's Cal oh so sleek ow. this thing bigger meaning 30 feet long. can you imagine a manatee that's 30 feet.

long to waste. ten times it's called stellar not. because it's stellar but because it was. discovered by a guy named George stellar. ooh. the hate - you know - your expectations. but I think that this thing was brought. back there would be a sea cow sunset. family cruise with the slogan right a. sea cow into the sunset but they go. underwater all the family I have to hold. no wrath you'd be like you would be sit. there would be a ride hi they ride like.

they ride like a foot below the water so. it just looks like a family in. single-file just kind of floating. through the water walking - done sir. could you imagine getting a picture of. your family on the back of a seat cow I. might actually start that if we bring. this thing back. I guess I'm turning into the evil person. now that I'm thinking about all the. financial opportunities to exploit. animals and finally a giant bird yes. this is the Argent Tavis magnificant. look at this thing this is the largest. flying bird in recorded history now. humans are not responsible for its.

extinction this thing lived in the Meo. singing of the NiO scene which that just. means a whole long time ago before. humans wrong or a whole long time ago. and this is a feathered bird yes not. like a pterodactyl right so this is a. reproduction of what this thing might. have looked like this is not like a. specimen that was found wingspan up to. 26 feet wing area of 75 feet which is. slightly smaller than a Learjet whoa. it's like a jet size crow and this thing. is - believed to have killed prey as. large as a cattle in one fell swoop you.

mean a cow yeah as cattle or a cattle or. a cow a heifer could have killed a. heifer horrible a bovine now I think. that if this thing was brought back you. could train it to poop in pinpointed. locations now I've been crapped on by a. bird before like at the beach did you. imagine being crapped on by something. the size of a Learjet. [Music]. you would be completely covered in if.

you could find a way to train this bird. to crap on your enemies or like as a. prank of your prankster out there Franks. Turkey and you're not busy painting. golden toads in the cloud forest of. argent to Costa Rica you could do this. hmm some sort of some sort of you want. to harness birds for warfare. it's basically what you're saying if you. think I missed an extinct animal that. should be brought back to life and. exploited by humans because that's what. we do then put it in the comments also. thanks for liking this episode and you.

there's like a giant sea cow over here. I'm gonna go see if I can ride it yeah. you should ride into the sunset with. your family down here I'm diving uh okay. you he's diving deeper than I thought he. would you okay down there buddy. hey buddy hey buddy he seems to be. submerged make some bubbles make some.

bubbles if you're okay you're supposed. to not make bubbles so I have to fish. you out make some bubbles if you're okay. I don't see any bubbles I gotta go have. trim oh this was a lot easier than I. thought it would be how was that sea cow. ride buddy you think we should invest in. it a little overrated no sunset anywhere. to be seen. where's your family. oh gosh that baby's born that mom's.
