Alaska’s coastal wolves are documented for the first time. They have developed unique survival strategies worthy of their protection from threats like Pebble Mine and overly aggressive hunting regulations.

This documentary not only suggests that wolves are not the aggressive beasts that many people assume but how they could have possibly befriended early humans to become the first wolf dogs.

Documentation of this range of encounter types with wild wolves is unprecedented. Wolves display playfulness, curiosity, prey-testing, social dominance in sustained close encounters with the protagonist.

Conflict between wolves and humans is a popular topic in Europe and the USA.  Interviews with Swiss farmers who have actually been damaged by wolves show the conflict in true documentary format
