MAY WOLF EVER WALK BESIDE YOU & GRANT YOU REST IN HIS SHADOW. MAY HIS PAWS EVER GUIDE YOUR PATH, & YOUR HOWLS BE HEARD BY ALL.

Let the wolves live in FREEDOM

Let the wolves live in FREEDOM

Wolves are having a very, VERY tough time this year.
First there was HR.1, a bill allowing for wolves to be de-listed from the ESA by POLITICS not SCIENCE, then hunted and controlled, allowing for wolves to be shot on sight all over the U.S., gassed in their dens, shot down from airplanes, and possibly meaning the extinction of the Mexican gray wolf.
Fortunately, this bill was not passed. But now there are several more bills like it.
Not to mention the new 'settlement' made by 10 plaintiff ENVIRONMENTAL groups, including Defenders of Wildlife and NRDC, allowing for the hunting of wolves in ID and MT, and TRUSTING THESE STATES to manage wolves SCIENTIFICALLY.
Which seems impossible.
Well we'll see what the consequences are, how it works out for wolves... if it turns out badly, hopefully people will learn from it.
But whatever happens, we MUST keep fighting to keep wolves protected so they can live in freedom forever.

Wolf Pack by Bill Mason - NFB

Wolf Pack by Bill Mason - NFB: "Filmed by Bill Mason in caribou country, this nature film closely observes wolves through late winter into early spring. Wolf Pack shows this creature’s character, behaviour and life cycle. What emerges is a portrait of the wolf as a disciplined hunter, respected leader and committed parent."

Cry of the Wild

This feature-length documentary from Bill Mason imparts his affection for the big northern timber wolves and the pure-white Arctic wolves. Filmed over three years in the Northwest Territories, British Columbia, the High Arctic and his home near the Gatineau Hills in Quebec, Mason sets out to dispel the myth of the bloodthirsty wolf. Going beyond the wolf's natural habitat, Mason relocated three young wolves to his own property and was able to film tribal customs, mating and birth. As a result, Cry of the Wild offers viewers access to moments in wildlife never before seen on film.

Solitude

"The worst solitude is to be destitute of sincere friendship." - Francis Bacon

"No man will ever unfold the capacities of his own intellect who does not at least checker his life with solitude."
