Extending above the Arctic Circle in the far north of Canada, Ellesmere Island is one of largest untouched wildernesses on the planet. Here, the animals have only three short months to raise offspring and prepare for the winter. To succeed, their timing must be just right. White Falcon, White Wolf follows two families, a breeding pair of gyrfalcons and a pack of Arctic wolves. As nine months of snow and ice melt away, flowers bloom, young are born, and the struggle begins.
Gyrfalcons are the world’s largest and most powerful falcons. Yet even for them, the pressure is on. Last summer this pair’s two chicks died of starvation. Will the conditions be right this summer? Will their best efforts be enough to keep this year’s chicks healthy? Filmed in HD from a ledge adjacent to the nesting site, White Falcon, White Wolf provides an intimate portrait of this magnificent species.
Meanwhile, the pack of Arctic wolves wait with great anticipation for a sign that new pups have been born to their breeding female, who has spent a great deal of time in her den. When the pups arrive, the young wolf daughter will need to grow up. For now, however, she tends to let her curiosity get the best of her. Musk ox, snowy owls, Arctic hares and Arctic foxes round out the cast, as they too try to make the most of the precious Arctic summer. Buy the DVD. The film premiered October 26, 2008.
i brought up a most beautiful arctictimbermalimute white snowblind wolf nov, 1989. my parents took a little vacation towards oregon for couple weeks . i told em i,m gonna get a dog , either a pit or rotwieler befor they left. they come back and tell me they stayed in hoopa met a nice indian off the klamath river with a wolf that just had 4 cubs and is in her den she made. i told my parents i will take 1 cub and do the responsible care for the animal. few weeks later they went up , and came back with 2 8week old pure white wolves ,hoopa girl and willow. i felt i was gonna be way out of league with my mntn bike and 2 wolves with retractable leashes , so willow moved to pacifica and 2 female malimutes .i had spent nearly 15 years with hoopa girl ,thanks to my mom and dad sebastian & nancy martorano was able to understand the wolf more than any human could ever dream to be how i understood god coaching me and i took real risks when ever that leash was off her not to kill and eat any female dog or fixed maledog .she went to obedient school at marin humane society ,definateley all with the leash,be ready with mntbike to tackle her like joe montana can make a point end of games and succeed not to hurt your wolf your self not to have my wolf havean instant sport event with community pets but jackrabbitts beware . thank you god for my best friend ,could not be duplicatedwith another wolf how marty stoefer would hand the nobel prize to be a wolf inside a humans instincts knowledged. santi.
the wolf is a very majesticly well mannered at the dinner table or where ever we would go and do . she’s even been on the gondola at sugarbowl. bottom line is do not get a wolf and keep it in a back yard or take a wild animal and let that animal suffer the being icarscerated prison depression of a reagular dog gets most there life.

I have seen this wonderful show twice and can’t wait to see it again. It’s one of the best ever produced. Our cat also approves. He has sat mesmerized, intently watching the entire show, both times. Thank you PBS.
Even though I promoted the last viewing on WETA on my Facebook page, I managed to miss the airing myself. I loved the original films I saw of Ellesmere Island and the Arctic Wolves National Geographic produced. I hope this Nature production is aired again soon, but don’t see it on the schedule.
I really enjoy looking at the wolves on the previews

Hello Greg and all readers, I just wanted to saytht the FED is clearly a self serving bank which only profits from the money which is created by the USA. If they design a policy that creates the need to create an endless supply of money the FED is locked in.
Dearest, ME, Friends/ Family, What would it take to have our beloved, HOME COMPANION return??!!….2 thumbs up !! ;p
