People and Carnivores: Boneyards, Bears and Wolves - Trailer

Trailer for People and Carnivores: Boneyards, Bears and Wolves, a soon-to-be-released documentary film about living with large carnivores. The story begins a decade ago in western Montana’s Blackfoot River Valley and explores how a rural agricultural community responded to the resurgence of grizzly bears and wolves. The film explores the thoughtful “can do” approach of Montana ranchers who realized that the age old practice of dumping dead livestock onto “boneyards” was destined to spell trouble by attracting grizzly bears and wolves onto ranches resulting in poor outcomes for wildlife and ranchers. At its core, this film attempts to illustrate that it is possible to transcend ideological divides and to solve serious problems in a polarized world.
