Honestly this is one of the best I've ever seen. It's Planet Earth - worthy footage. Had no intention of watching the whole thing and couldn't turn away. Bravo!
Great video....amazing in the final moments when the last two buffalo leave their brother to die. The herd tried to protect one another as best they could but in the end their survival instincts took over and it was time to flee. Great to see healthy big packs of wolves in Yellowstone like this.
Sun faded . They are black. Sun faded to chocolate, not true black color, is mixed hairs like others but some hairs are true black. Face shorter hair and grooming pulls out. Some of Dis olor chocolate is also dead hair in Pelt that will undercoat shed later.
That was amazing thanks so much. Loved the bit where the Stoat are all running in the snow and the wolves playing in the snow. Arctic Fox colours were lovely.
I'm sure folks can find plenty of animal predation at its bloodiest with little effort. For some crazy reason, lots of people love animals and nature but don't like to see other animals killed.. Apex predators rock. But we love bunny rabbits, elk et al Fluff, some might call it. 😊
Fwiw, and this fascinated me because I used to assume very few species were capable of grief: a documentary about giraffes changed everything. Later I witnessed cows doing the same thing. Tbh I'm pretty sure no one can prove it either way, but behavior is powerful to witness. Paz y luz.
That is a great video. Wolves are so endurance, smart, powerfull, collective animals and also quite cute and emotional. Wolves which are at top of the food chain have an important role for ecological balance. Please save, protect and love wolves
This Yukon variety is why our big famous elk herds in the backcountry of Montana and Idaho are in a predator pit and elk have moved into marginal ranch areas.
This would be the Mollies wof pack. They live in the interior of Yellowstone ND are bison hunting specialists. They're the only remaining pack of the packs that were originally reintroduced to Yellowstone back in the 90s.
Oh how Great,,,,,,,,,how many times a week do these Wolf kill a buffalo ?? Thats just one Pack. Why are they not hunting Elk ??/ Because all the ELK are gone except the one's that live close to a house. You destroyed the Greatest Elk herd we had,,,,,and the Moose,,,and the Deer,,,,,,and Sheep and Goats and Coyotes,,,,,,,Good Job
two words: STOP LYING. If the wolves were capable of causing the elk to go extinct, then the elk would have gone extinct thousands of years ago, and that is FACT.
It’s winter! Elk migrate out of most of Yellowstone. Obviously wolves aren’t killing enough bison. Because most years the herds have to be culled. So they don’t over graze. I bet you’d you’d rather see them die a natural death. Their teeth wear Don and they starve to death.
@@gregorywhitely9320 Lake trout decimated the spring brook trout fishery in Yellowstone.....for Grizzly. so they changed to elk calves, then cattle calves. Wolves get the blame. actuall follow up: 24 of 28 calves taken were by grizzly bears, not wolves. But don't let facts bother you, "mericans. you know best. now look at the rest of the mess you made.
Are you blind? His video does show the wolf pack taking down a bison. Also, the content creator was trying to give an overall feel for Yellowstone during winter. Your comments are childish.
@@blueeyebeauty6364, your comment is beyond childish, clip didn’t say winter in Yellowstone, said wolves hunt buffalo, you got the soft version, snowflake
Honestly I don't know why people make wolves bad in books, after all they are just trying to survive. You can't just think that they're bad. You also gotta think in their point of view.
Yellowstone National Park. The place where native Americans were forced to leave, after we killed off all the bison 🦬. We're lucky to have bison left. We're also lucky to have native Americans. HISTORY 101
It's truly amazing how Wolves can handle such large prey. Elite! For anyone that enjoyed this video, check out Frozen Planet 2. 25 of the Biggest Wolves in the world hunt even bigger Bison than Yellowstone has.
The Bison aren’t going to last long. For thousands of years bison bred and had a healthy heard to survive the wolf pacts, the wolves were depleted and now their being uncheck.
Thanks liberal city slickers of Colorado for voting these into our state. They letting these go where 80%+ were voted no on ballet because most of Colorado makes their way of living thru ranching and these will be let go in those primary ranching areas and not in the city where y’all live! Thanks! Great job
Junction butte. Currently the biggest pack in yellowstone and is the only pack ever in yellowstone history to hunt bison more than elk. They primarily kill adult bison too, 24% females %21BULLs and 11% more adults but their gender is unknown. This pack are slowly becoming expert bison hunters. Not as good as the ones in wood buffalo national though, they kill bison at an almost 80% rate. Killing an adult bison every 9 days or so in the winter
To the person who comes here after a hard and challenging day: well done, you did well today and tomorrow will be better. Just relax, block out all the distracting noises and enjoy the relaxing sounds of nature. I wish you the best
"Волк и ягненок будут пастись вместе и лев, как бык, будет есть солому, а змея будет питаться земной пылью. Они не будут причинять зла и вреда на всей моей святой горе..." Библия.
This is really rather lame. At about the 5th minute some very tiny wolves pull down an only slightly larger bison. Kind of. For a few seconds. Then much later a bison carcass gets chewed on. For a few seconds. The rest is just pretty pictures.
There are about 125 wolves in Yellowstone. There are about 6,000 bison in Yellowstone. A wolf eats about 8 bison per year. The Math: 125 x 8 = 1000. Remember, 90% of the bison eaten by wolves in Yellowstone are prime females so you lose calf production to replace loss. So the wolves take 1,000 bison a year, they kill mostly females who won't bear calves now and there are 6,000 bison in total in Yellowstone. Bottom line: if you want to see some bison in Yellowstone, you better make your plans to get out there pronto.
Wolves and bison lived together for a millenia before overhunting of the wolves by humans. I'm sure they'll figure it out, Luke they had fir hundreds if not thousands of years before.
They killed everything else off so now they moved on to the bison, and slowly will eliminate this too until Yellowstone will be devoid of any ungulates.
They kill everything. Northern MN deer herd down 90 % Moose are way down. Killing cattle and pets. There has never been an animal that's had more incorrect information said about it. By so-called exports.
@@georgekiriak7027 Wolves have already killed plenty of livestock and pets, and under the right circumstances they have killed plenty of humans too. Look up wolf super packs. It's pure ignorance to assume they don't or won't do it.
These are not indigenous wolves. We had wolves in the lower 48 still. Irremotus historically never ran in packs in park records of groups more than 4 or 5 . They also didn't sport kill. These Yukon wolves are from Northern Canada, and are the largest subspecies of wolf in the world. Documented packs of our native wolves were covered up in the Frank Church in Idaho by a man that mapped them for the USFWS and IDFG in Idaho. RIP White Socks. This wolf also spread Hydatid Disease to our ungulate populations. It's an environmental hazard as well as a wildlife shredder. People should be put in jail that brought them down here and trapped them illegally.
Also, why do you think people who care about the ecosystem should be put in jail? "Trapped them illegally" last I checked, wildlife conservation isn't illegal.
Yeah until the Buffalo run out like the Elk,Deer, Sheep and Goats in Yellowstone. They ruined Yellowstone,,,there was so many Elk before 1996,,,,,,,,insane numbers. The last few times i drove thru the park i saw a hand-ful if that. Yellowstone is the Smoky mountains now,,,beautiful land,,,BUT not so many animals left
Ganging up on a superior healthy animals 😂. Almost every pack hunting animals do that starting from lions to wild dogs because they need to survive so what do you expect and greedy wolves? lmao go read some scientific articles and studies about how wolves play an important role in their ecosystem.
