My eyes got real teary watching this. Knowing that how these animals were once so plentiful that the idea of them being wiped out is beyond comprehension; and now just seeing a FEW dead specimens of them on display in museums chokes me. Humans tend to be ignorant and take things for granted, and it is very often too late when we realized as they are gone.

My takeaway in these trying times, "How effective humans are in a destructive of a species that was so plentiful"

You can just hearing his heart breaking in his voice. You can tell he really has love for what he does in trying to educate people to not repeat the same mistake and remember the species that are now gone.

This is a really beautiful and respectful application of taxidermy. I really like this as an opportunity to learn and be educated. It's so sad to see so many beautiful creatures lost forever

This is a bit depressing... One second there a thousands and next thing you know there are none left anymore.... They were here first. We invaded there space not them invading are space.... Humans are selfish creatures....

Every animal has rights too, just because they can't communicate, doesn't mean they are brainless animals that don't care if they die, us humans are basicly a pest on earth, we even slowly kill our only home in the universe. We even don't learn from our mistakes from history...think of it like this...right now people think wolves as a pest and needs to be gone, In the future, when the wolves are gone, people a will think of them as an animal that once was here and now is gone and we will feel sorry for it. Recently the black rino as been confirmed extinct cause there only one left, people don't realize about things until they are fully gone. We may be the most smart being on earth, but we act like children without proper parenting, it feels we are not even going forward, we keep on living the past...technology advances but people stay the same...

Vincent Zepczyk Animals are no different than trees and plants. You don't complain about the millions of trees "killed" to make toilet paper, wood, medicine, rubber etc. So don't complain when humans use animals for their own purposes. Like plants, animals should be of benefit to humans, otherwise we're wasting their potential usefullness.

Vincent Zepczyk No, I believe he is saying that we should use animals as a resource, much like trees, because everything on this earth is ours to utilize. What I believe is key, however, is the proper management of said resources, otherwise we end up putting species into extinction and causing much more destruction than what is necessary.

There is an unfortunate bit of misleading in this informative clip. No, the people who created the original AMNH dioramas did not just think “Oooh, the bounty of Africa, let’s plunder it.” No. It was far more complex than that, and it’s a disservice to our naturalist ancestors to think of them in such a base way. Carl Akeley (for whom the African Hall is named) knew that the wildlife and wildscapes that he saw in Africa were under grave threat of being wiped out, and worked to carefully preserve these naturescapes of the past to educate and inspire the public. Frank Chapman used his bird habitat dioramas to help educate the feathered-hat-loving public to stop plundering away these magnificent birds. It’s easy to look at history and villainize it - DO NOT mislead the public about these beautiful works of art. If you wish to inform yourself further, please seek out the books "Windows on Nature" and "Kingdom Under Glass" for a start.

This makes me so sad. It reminds me of all the beautiful creatures I used to watch during animal planet or nat geo specials. Now they've gone extinct, and no more specials are aired about them..It's also sad to know that my kids may never know/see the animals I've grown up loving.

For all the sad people who are saying that humans must go extent, I tell them this. I assume that you now know the impact of our harmful actions on our planet. Why don't you use your energy to counter those harmful actions, instead of writing meaningless and useless comments. There are a lot of opportunities one can do to improve and protect the lives on this planet. There are a lot of volunteering opportunities out there, and there are a lot of actions one can do in his home that could help even a little, like recycling and many others. Spend your time and energy wisely in doing something which will have a positive effect on the future of our lives, and I wish you all the best.

I truly enjoyed this video in a way that I haven't thought of taxidermy before. It is so terrible the way that these species go extinct with hunting being the primary cause. The Lonesome George story had made my eyes water a bit and I hope that this video opens up the eyes of many and that a majority of the human race can take action in saving and preserving animals left on earth. I also hope that we can learn to appreciate these creatures :)

They're all so beautiful...

Lonesome George made me cry

Looking through his eyes even for just a brief second, I felt the longing and sadness of Lonesome George. Now he and his entire species is extinct, we only have ourselves to blame- If only we have done something sooner.

All these beautiful animals destroyed by humanity, very sad. It would be beautiful to see all these animals thriving and running in their natural habitat enjoying life.
