Ernest Thompson Seton ventures out to check his baits, slabs of meat laced with poison. He follows Lobo’s tracks and discovers that Lobo has taken several of the baits. Expecting to find Lobo’s dead body, Seton continues on. At the fourth bait, however, he realizes that Lobo may be smarter than he’d thought.

This was A most interesting and touching story!More stuff like this!
I love Nature, and this story.
However, I find it to be a little misleading after reading Seton’s own account. For example, Blanca was not shot. She was lassoed twice and pulled between two horses..
I just wanted to say thanks for airing this show. I used to be a zookeeper and it was great to here conservation efforts stared so long ago.
I did not see the whole program, but I loved it. How can I get a DVD or a VHS of this program? MARGARET
I found the program well done, as most PBS features are. One of my favorite networks……but, after searching for the “Lobo” photos, I had to wince while looking……..I hope that the female, “Blanca” was shot before being pulled apart with ropes…….
I THOUGHT IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL STORY….DID SETON WRITE THIS AND WAS IT A TRUE VERSION OF WHAT HAPPENED?
minblowing! heroic, passionate, beautiful! kids, never mind sport stars and athlete’s get into nature!
One of my favorite PBS shows yet. Truly a great tale.
In my school, St. Brendan’s College, Bristol UK, some 50 years ago this year, I was awarded the book “The Best of Ernest Thompson Seton”. I remember being entralled by the tale of Lobo and am delighted PBS has chosen to produce it for TV. PBS, you are the best!
i have like 26 pictures of animals

I BELEIVE THIS WAS AN INCREDIBLE VIDEO. I MYSELF AM A HUGE FAN OF WOLVES AND WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT IF WOLVES COME HERE LET THEM BE BUT IF THEY CAUSE TROUBLE LET THE PERSON WHO THE WOLF IS CAUSING TROUBLE TAKE CARE OF THEM. OTHER THAN THAT I SAY LEAVE THEM ALONE. THEY MAY BE A NUICENCE BUT THEY ARE STILL A MAJOR PART OF US. LLLEEEAAAVVVEEE TTTHHHEEEMMM AAALLLOOONNNEEE…
OTHER THAN THAT IT WAS VERY ENJOYABLE AS IS THE REST OF THE SITE
Great story. It is like a real life Captain Ahab and his quest to capture the whale.
