Wild Films ~ The Wolf OR-7 Expedition
Place:
Library Hall A featured film from the 2016 International Wildlife Film Festival!
Follow six adventurers as they retrace the route taken by a GPS-collared Oregon wolf to explore human and wolf coexistence. The Wolf OR-7 Expedition retraced the approximate track generated by the GPS collar worn by the Oregon wolf known as Wolf OR-7. The wolf was born in northeast Oregon and in 2011 left his pack and dispersed south to find new territory. The expedition team retraced, by bicycle and on foot, the young male grey wolf's approximate route as he traversed over 1,200 miles through Oregon and into California, to become the first and only documented free-roaming wolf in California in nearly 90 years. And he is still out there. Meet the people along Wolf OR-7’s route who are learning to adapt to the return of wolves.
