All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

We all know when humans try to manage ecosystems it all goes bad, Yellowstone was the perfect example. The film starts well, but fails to say why 1 man is set adrift in the wilderness or which organisation is to blame for such incompetence. At the end it just gets silly and pointless. True hunter / gatherers, fishermen and farmers do not cause adverse deprecation of wildlife, it's their livelihood to maintain those stocks. The hunter dog and cat breeds are even more inclined to avoid the large hunt, it's usually desperation of survival demands. Buffalo, Caribou, Deer along with Lions, Tigers, Elephants are the victims of sad city dwellers who think killing them from a safe distance makes them a big hunter. A certain US dentist comes to mind, but he killed the one that angered the host nation, that actually allows many more.

The demise of the Caribou has been attributed to the wolves and the govt wants to decide weather to kill of all the wolves and a scientist is sent to investigate.There are not many people who want to do this job, so a single man who just because of some childhood dreams is ready to go and he is selected. And this movie is his adventure.What he sees in the wild is quite different from what the govt thinks, about both the caribou and the wolves. And this is the fun part that you should see, i don't want to spoil it for you.If you like nature and enjoy documentaries and such, do definitely see it, you will love it. Others might find it boring.

i DO wish movie makers would stop throwing in the odd German shepherd to pad out the wolf numbers. they stick out like the proverbial 'dog's balls'. apart from that, this is a fine movie particularly for anyone interested in Farley Mowat's adventures. the fact that it is a Disney movie i find quite encouraging - the Disney studios obviously once had no compunction about making a decent movie. scenery is marvellous, the few characters are sympathetically presented and the movie seems free of the abominably cheesy elements which typify Disney movies. though Mowat was a singularly driven person, this is not the main theme of this movie and i for one am thankful for that. well worth watching and stands the test of time well.

Pretty good nature flick with newfound sympathy for wild wolves, which were eradicated from the western United States by the 1930s by government hunters in favor of the livestock industry.The good news is that wild wolves were replanted into wilderness areas in Idaho and Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming in the 1990s and have spread to surrounding states.The newbie scientist in Never Cry Wolf learns in the field what they didn't teach him in class---you cannot conduct an experiment without affecting the outcome of the experiment.Watch this film and gain a new appreciation for the value of a pretty smile.
