stripes 401 Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 Anyone watch it ? That big dog wolf that pulled the bison down, single handed, at the beginning, would have no problem with a Red Stag, I'd think !! Cheers. What channel was it on? And can I access it on catch up tv? BBC2 mate,, as far as catchup i wouldnt be too sure.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

With all the centuries of breeding for a certain standard,we are miles away from producing,as an hunting companion,anything that can match what evolution gave us a millenia ago.The power and stamina of the northern wolf is beyond our comprehension.

Country Joe 1,411 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 It was excellent, I know it was about the Wolves and their main pray, the Bison, but i thought they would have taken other prey, but you never seen any. You would think there would be Moose, or Deer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sowhat 1,572 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Excellent program Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 6,173 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Just watched it on iplayer: very good programme. When he said that some chases can last for 20 miles....! And to watch them swimming across 2 miles of choppy water only to find nothing but an old carcase on the other side. And I loved the bit where the youngster gets flipped off a carcase for daring to claim the whole body as its own: watching my own pack at home, the behaviour is identical, not that I feed my dogs whole cows It's the relationships between the different pack members I love to watch, both on programmes like these and in my own dogs. And the 'tag team' tactics of the 3 wolves attempting to injure the buffalo calf so its mother would abandon it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
staffs riffraff 1,068 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Great programme and some dedication on the cameramans part to get that footage on the ground in those conditions. Did anyone see the other wolf doc where a line wolf had hold of a bison and it was litterally one or the other going to die struggle was supposed to have lasted hours with the wolf getting kicked and tossed about like a ragdoll but knew if it didn't make this kill hunger would of killed it great bit of film that shows how cruel but amazing nature is Quote Link to post Share on other sites
