Produced and
directed by KUED-TV's
(Salt Lake City, Utah) John Howe, this
award-winning documentary discusses the conceptions and misconceptions
of wolves and how wolves were exterminated in the lower 48 states.
Although this documentary dates from before the reintroduction of
wolves into Yellowstone National Park, it explores the two sides of the
issue. Ranchers and others feel wolves are a threat to their way of life
and oppose reintroduction. In 1995, wolves were
actually reintroduced to Yellowstone and Idaho. Howe's sequel, "The Snow
Wolves" picks up where this first film left off and follows the
reintroduction efforts over a period of a year and a half as wolves are
transplanted from Canada to Yellowstone. 60 minutes) |
