The following is what Dr. Jane Goodall has to say about the film ‘Medicine of the Wolf’

“The sound of wolves howling under the stars is for me one of the most haunting and beautiful of nature’s voices. Native Americans

D. Jane Goodall
Dr. Jane Goodall

revered wolves for their wildness, courage, and loyalty.   Today science respects them for the important role they play in maintaining a healthy ecosystem. And countless numbers of the general public are fascinated by them.   Yet the myth of fierce and dangerous beasts, handed down from early white settlers, informs much of the  horrific and unjustified cruelty and persecution that wolves faces today. Medicine of the Wolf  explores the facts.  It is powerful, informative and moving, and as I watched I was first enchanted  and then enraged. I urge you to watch this compelling and courageous film and tell everyone you know to watch it as well.  Thank you, Julia Huffman for making it.”  Review by Dr. Jane Goodall

Please check Medicine of the Wolf a film that explores the spiritual, scientific, and ecological value of wolves. The main human subject of the film, Jim Brandenburg is a renowned wildlife photographer and author who has been a powerful wolf advocate for the last 30 years. In 2011, the US government lifted the Gray Wolf’s endangered species status, and since that time, hunters have killed over 1/3 of the population that was recovering since protection brought it back from the brink of extinction in the 1990s. -Bonnie Raitt

    I cant get my head round it, people who kill Wolves , there is something very wrong with them, Wolves are part of the eco system and if we upset that system WE WILL ALL SUFFER. Wolves are so ,,,,, Wolves . Those who kill for what ever reason should not ! .you will never see a Wolf kill unless for food or to defend its family , Don’t believe in reincarnation , if its true I would be proud to come back as a Wolf . Those people who save and look out for Wolves God bless you, great job
