The Film Society and Minnesota Made Presents ‘Medicine of the Wolf’ at the Minneapolis Convention Center, September 10, 2015
The following is what Dr. Jane Goodall has to say about the film ‘Medicine of the Wolf’ “The sound of wolves howling under the stars is for me one of the most haunting and beautiful of nature’s voices. Native Americans
D. Jane Goodall
revered wolves for
their wildness, courage, and loyalty. Today science respects them for
the important role they play in maintaining a healthy ecosystem. And
countless numbers of the general public are fascinated by them. Yet
the myth of fierce and dangerous beasts, handed down from early white
settlers, informs much of the horrific and unjustified cruelty and
persecution that wolves faces today. Medicine of the Wolf explores the
facts. It is powerful, informative and moving, and as I watched I was first enchanted and
then enraged. I urge you to watch this compelling and courageous film
and tell everyone you know to watch it as well. Thank you, Julia
Huffman for making it.” Review by Dr. Jane Goodall

In this video, he talks about making that cover happen. Unfortunately,
wolf populations are once again under attack. To find out how you can

Bonnie Raitt Recommends Medicine of the Wolf
Bonnie Raitt
Please check Medicine of the Wolf a film that explores the spiritual,
scientific, and ecological value of wolves. The main human subject of
the film, Jim Brandenburg
is a renowned wildlife photographer and author who has been a powerful
wolf advocate for the last 30 years. In 2011, the US government lifted
the Gray Wolf’s endangered species status, and since that time, hunters
have killed over 1/3 of the population that was recovering since
protection brought it back from the brink of extinction in the 1990s.
