[2] Throughout his youth, Galante spent time exploring the African bush, learning to wrangle snakes, trap small animals, and snorkel the reefs of the Bazaruto Archipelago in Mozambique.

[4] He completed the challenge—being dropped with a stranger in the remote section of northwestern Panama—and scored a PSR (primitive survival rating) of 8.8, one of the highest in the show's history.

[8] Galante produced the History channel show Face the Beast where two men attempt to retrace the steps of predators going on unexplained, killing rampages against humans.

[13] Galante serves as an advisory board member for Colossal Biosciences, a company which is seeking to genetically engineer extinct species such as the woolly mammoth[14] and dodo[15] back into existence to repair human-caused holes in world ecosystems.

[19][20] Trace evidence found on the expedition indicated that more individuals likely exist in the wild, and new searches were being planned to find a male Fernandina Tortoise that could potentially save the species.

"[23] His claim of rediscovering the Rio Apaporis Caiman was also contradicted by a Journal of Herpetology article written by Sergio A. Balaguera-Reina, a biologist at the Universidad de Ibagué and Texas Tech University.
