In Wolf Country

Few people will have missed it: after a long absence, the wolf is back in Western Europe. This documentary shows how the return of the wolf in Germany was made possible by democratically made decisions, which are carefully managed within a bureaucratic framewor

We follow scientists, conservationists and sheep herders, who keep a close eye on the wolf for various reasons. We see them at work in the field and laboratories, and experience how they get involved in the public debate about the wolf – which is unfortunately devoid of factual and testable knowledge.
