EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, featuring Joe Rogan and Forrest Galante, Joe Rogan Experience #2531 - Forrest Galante explores wildlife, cryptids, AI, and ethics—from orcas to conservation funding Galante debunks a recurring “black panther” trail-cam claim as a melanistic jaguar/leopard rather than a nonexistent melanistic mountain lion, using coat-pattern details like rosettes to explain identification.
