I would have missed it were it not for your tip. Enjoyed the photography (in all locations) and learned a lot about the panthers and Euro-bears, but I thought the Yellowstone story was too simplified (the others probably were too, I don't have the background to judge). Out of one side of our mouths we say the wolves have reduced the elk population so much that the trees can come back, and out of the other we say there are still too many elk so the hunters should stop bitchin' ...how 70-150 wolves can have cured the over-grazing problem in a 2.2 million acre area is a mystery, isn't it?
Also there were a few moments in which the sound tracks were used to suggest predator savagery (particularly around the beehive wreckage). Which is not appropriate editorializing in my view.

(I am hard to please.)
