Synopsis: Determined to overcome misconceptions and provide ideas on how these animals can be successfully reintroduced into the wild, Jim & Jamie Dutcher spent 6 years in a primitive tented camp on the edge of the Idaho wilderness. Wolves are so intelligent and elusive that they alter their behavior when closely observed by humans. By socializing with the pack from the time they were pups, the Dutchers gained the wolves trust. Their presence was deliberately in the background, as unthreatening observers. They made no attempt to make the wolves pet-like, or interfered with their circumstances. The Dutchers present the wolves as complex, intelligent creatures, oriented toward family life, antic play and strong social bonds. To be released simultaneously with a 2-hour documentary of the same name on the Discovery Channel
