- In the Kettle River Range of Northeastern Washington, wolves are being killed to protect livestock that graze on public lands. A lone range rider, Daniel Curry, works year-round using nonlethal mitigation methods to help prevent wolves from looking at cows as a food source-and to prove that coexistence is possible.

About Patagonia:
At Patagonia, we appreciate that all life on earth is under threat of extinction. We’re using the resources we have-our business, our investments, our voice and our imaginations-to do something about it.

That's really cool seeing a modern day mountain man. The scene with him on horse patrolling with a pack of dogs was straight out of a movie!
Well, this is a movie ..
I love sports films as much as the next person, but this is one of the best Patagonia films I've seen.
Best film so far!
Agreed!
Thank you Patagonia for being a beacon of environmental stewardship and for setting a remarkable example for others in the industry. Your commitment to sustainability and the protection of our shared spaces is truly commendable, and it has not gone unnoticed.
Those range riders do an amazing job, what a life to be able to spend a lot of time outdoors in the wild riding horses and working with cattle and wolves but it's definitely a tough job and not for everyone. The life of small cattle ranchers is very often a struggle and I respect them.
Another top shelf doc Patagonia. Daniel, I am 66 and traveled all over the American west learning about water issues, wolf issues, and land management issues in the past 40 years. Worked as a carpenter for many years for people on both sides of many of these issues in several states. I was not in anyone's camp or side. I wanted to follow where my heart's calling lead me. You are on such a path. Continue to follow your heart and your bliss and be the best human being you can and doors will open and helping hands will arrive, of this I know first hand. It is not easy, but it is worthwhile. Strive on.....
Its hard to appreciate someone else's point of view until we have walked where they have walked especially on polarizing things such as wolves. I love Daniels perspective, about loving your neighbor.
White man, as a generalization, since being sent to North America has deconstructed and attempted to create their ideal… and it is proven to be deadly for most everything . . . Sorry to observe conservationists who ignore their most important resource, EARTH (and not their unwillingness to improve our environments).
Hard to win round someone who thinks wolf conservation is linked to satanism! But the future will hopefully be on the side of truth, beauty and nature. This great film is so full of hope.
The hat was a give away for me lol
Hope for who?
I do agree. There are some who remain set in their way of thinking that they become blind to solutions that work for everyone, like these range riders. Thank you, Patagonia, for giving this gentle and wise man a voice.
Did God not create the wolves, too? Guy must actually be insane.
Just further proof the Bible is poison and Trumpsters are the real issue…
Deep lessons in here. Beautiful film.
Thank you for standing for Wolves and educating the masses from your platform
I’m working on a photography project about the (hopeful) reintroduction of wolves here in the UK so I was stoked to find this. I’m still amazed at the sensationalism and lack of reason and evidence that goes with the anti-wolf lobby narrative. Satanism?! Please. But seriously, a superb film and that half hour flew by. Will re-watch.
Seems to me that 500 cows killed in eight years on one ranch is a lot of evidence. Everyone hopes this program will work, but there's certainly no conclusive proof that it does. The strength of this film is showing both sides of the story and laying out the facts.
What an inspiring dude.......absolute diamond. Put a smile on my face. If only there were more like him. All the best Daniel.
Incredible job done by the folks at Wild Confluence! This is brilliant storytelling at its finest.
Thanks for making this incredible film and for letting us share it with the world!
This is a great piece done by Patagonia- really digs into the heart of our conversation on cohabitation of animals and their prey. There is a great film called "Never Cry Wolf" from the 1980's that also explores this relationship with the added filter/lens of tribal rights/sovereignty.
Thank you Daniel for being a voice of reason and thank you to everyone for creating this film! Very enlightening around a complex topic. I found the ranchers commit about satanic worship of animals rather odd considering how much he loves his own golden cows...
Thank you for sharing this production with our community, Daniel was awesome to meet in person and I agree with the reintroduction of wolves to be responsibly managed, this is such a hot topic.
Ferry County is my favorite place in the world, glad Patagonia is taking the time to spread awareness about these issues/collaboration efforts.
Thank you so much for covering one side of the issue. I still want cattle reduced or removed from public lands, but because the land needs more wildlife diversity.
Daniel bring out a missing and important element to raising cattle - direct, everyday, care. And that's what's required to keep cattle safe. But when people can just go to the supermarket and pick up a roast, or ground beef for burgers - there's absolutely no way to understand the real cost of eating meat. It is expensive and way beyond the dollar.
Beaut... Absolute must for a better round two coexistence with wolves in Washington, thanks to folks like Daniel we have a good chance. This is inspiring, and makes me want to look into wolve conservation.
Loving what you do makes you better at it...just as Patagonia films. What a great film. I never knew Range Riders were a "thing". Daniel you are awesome.
A great big thank you to the Film Makers and to Patagonia for helping my friend get his message out to the general public. Wolves and humans have coexisted all over the world for eons. It's not impossible to do so with respect, dignity and some hard work for all involved. I highly recommend getting in touch with Daniel if you have an interest in making a difference for wolf and rancher alike!
There are not enough people who can do this or want to. Maybe some want to but they don’t have the background, learning and experience needed to make this very sensitive work succeed. Can this man teach these skills to others? Maybe to some. This is a rare man who does what he believes and hurts none, if possible. His experiences and beliefs create something possible.
A real movie. 💯 thanks Patagonia. Daniel much respect sir.
Amazing. It’s crazy how crazy we all are.
This is just excellent! Great doc giving both sides a chance to speak. But i love what he is doing - finding a way - a different way - for us to live together. To respect all Life. It is a tougher job and complicated to figure out the right way to go - but it’s what we must learn to do. Many blessings to all of you creating this. 🙏🏻❤️🐺
Give my best to Daniel and tell him to watch his six. I'll be retiring soon and I'll go up there and join the fight with him.
best Patagonia film ever made
Very inspiring story and a wonderful job to manage the right balance. Keep up the great work
Amazing film! So beautifully made and Daniel is so cool.
Incredible, beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for this
Keep on fighting for people to see through the veil, we are more the same than we are led to believe. We all seek family, love, safety, finding beauty in the natural world, seeking a sense of personal understanding of what is around us.
And sorry apologies to all the great ranchers seen in the video that understand how it can be done. THANK YOU to these humans ❤❤❤❤
That was simply the best doc I’ve ever seen
To protect the wildlife is SO NECESSARY!!!!
Amazing doc showing both sides… great to see different perspectives. Such beautiful country out there.
lets get bio diverse ! thanks Pat
Keep doing this! I live in the fancy tech-bro Bay Area that has unfortunately, in a way, culturally appropriated the Patagonia brand because they think they’re doing good but most can’t find can’t find the way out of a Tesla or REI. Not to mention actually doing hard work.
Truly amazing! Absolutely love this documentary.
This is incredible
Thank you. Grew up in So. Central Oregon and the concerns look familiar.
So impressed and intrigued in so many ways. Very much enjoyed this piece and its message.
Loved this.
Amazing film❤️
Thank you.
Very well done. I am so proud of you.
Thanks Diana. You were always my second mother. I miss you!
Hello son! I miss you also. I just talked to Jack. He just got home from dropping you off at the airport. I am overjoyed that Jack got to be with you at your special event in Sedona. Jack told me all about the event and how you won an award. Congratulations! How cool is it that you guys got to do this? Jack is very happy that you called him and invited him to go with you. If your ever in Arizona, please stop and see us. @@danielcurry8474
incredible and refreshing perspective on our natural world and the world as a whole. thank you
Great film! Opened my eyes to the connections we all lack. Thank you
Do not judge your neighbor until you walk two moons in his moccasins
(Cheyenne proverb)
I’ll walk zero moons in a Trump hat. 👏
Amazing! Everyone needs to watch this.
Bravo!
wow one of the best films i have ever seen. How is Daniel? what decisions has he made?
I think that the idea of range riders it is a wise decition I hope it continues on for the sake of every one involved in this chain
Not having regular employment is the issue for Daniel an others. He says it at the 15:00 mark. the feds toss you out with nothing during winter. Same goes for most people who work outdoors for the agencies, fire crews, trail crews etc. Its a joke. Meanwhile, Colorado just released 5 wolves, going to make the same mistakes as WA, MT, ID, WY......
A mistake to some, a revitalization of an out-of-balance ecosystem.
Nothing is ‘perfect’ - man’s manipulations versus supporting nature clearly demonstrates that.
Muito legal!
Such a fascinating and inspiring man! Thank you so much Daniel for your amazing and inspiring work!
Great film! Check out Eli Francovich’s book,The Return of Wolves: An Iconic Predator's Struggle to Survive in the American West, for an even deeper dive into Curry and range riding in eastern WA.
Bellissimo! Bravissimo!! Super, emozionante…
Great film
What a special person
Best solution is to have a funding package for affected ranchers who can be compensated from that when a wolf kills one of their calfs. The range riders can then continue to focus on conservation and the ranches don't need to go killing wild wolves on public lands.
Beautiful
Get the Central Asian shepherds
Excellent and inspiring film, keep the good work going. And changing minds for the better.
Very interesting and well done. I see the predicament and get the fight from both sides. Could the state helping with a guardian/flock dog program help both sides?
Respect 🙏 to all range riders
Beautiful 🎥film🏞️🧠✌🏼
Long live the wolves 🐺❤️
Two things Why don’t the ranchers use livestock guardian dogs? and why didn’t that rancher use his Border Collie dogs to load up the cattle and the bull?
LGD don’t really work as well with cattle as they do with sheep because cattle disperse over a large area. The film was misleading in that the rancher featured was a very small operation. I agree about the border collies and can only guess the guy is not a dog man, not everyone is. Bigger question, why doesn’t he have any horses?
He should write a book.
明けましておめでとうございます❤❤❤
Both sides are wrong. Its possible for us to Co exist, but only through proper management. Wolves and humans have lived together for eons. When wolves over popolate, and they will, they wipe out the local game until their numbers dwindle from lack if prey. If the state would issue tags for wolves, it would pay for the resources to keep their numbers right. No tags whens theres not enough wolves. This plus range riders would pretty much make the problem go away plus pay for more conservation. This exactly same model works for predators all over the country and even other parts of the world. The same people that get mad about responsible harvest of predators are the ones that don't understand that trophy hunting in Africa saved almost all of the big 5
So in our eons of coexistence, they never overpopulated. Its just now, despite millions of acres of their habitat being taken, near extinction, and constant pressure, that they are becoming a problem?
@@fish-gz6np of course they did, and they were managed not exterminated except in most of europe. Management not only keeps the population on check but it also instills the fear of man.
Not the complete solution but your suggestions would go 80% towards fixing the problems I believe.
Wrong trophy hunting and trapping is NOT Conservation, it never was and never will be. There's many non-lethal methods to keep wolves and other predators at bay. Ecotourism brings in way more money than trophy hunting. Also wolves aren't a crop, you don't harvest wolves, it's candy coating slaughter, murder, and eradication. Which is exactly what Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming are trying to do, our essential wolves are endangered or close to it. Wolves don't wipe out ungulates, they keep herds healthy and thriving, while keeping diseases like CWD at bay.
My great-great- grandfather was born in 1795. Under 1 billon humans on earth.
My grandfather was born 110 years later in 1904: 1.6 billion humans on earth.
My Dad in 1943, under 3 billion.
I was born in 1969; in 1974 we passed 4 billon. Humans passed the 6 billon mark in 1999 when my daughter was born.
Last november, 2022, human population doubled to over 8 billon.
We're in the midst of the sixth mass (human-driven) extinction.
Hundreds of thousands of species that have been around for millons of years have gone or are going extinct.
Anyone notice a trend?A problem perhaps? A source cause, maybe?
I love these guys wearing their carharrt pants and givin a f#%k on Patagonia.
Ok, I wanna be this guy. :D
Incredible film! Thank you! Although I am not satanic in anyway as the elderly rancher suggests! I am for the wolves. Cattle destroy Wild medicine plants as well pollute the water.
The first mistake seems to be relying so heavily on a non-native species
Bang
One farmer in this video claims he had lost 500 cattle to wolf predation. How many cattle does he run? That’s a huge loss. How many years does this claim represent. Does this number include all other losses? It is natural to lose a certain percentage to other causes. A loss of 500 cattle to wolf predation in that whole region by all farmers would be pretty extreme. It would be interesting to see this farmer’s books.
I understand the loss of ANY cows or calves is devastating. But this claim seems excessive for one farmer. Exaggerating claims does not help to draw support for farmers.
It would be interesting to see the actual numbers.
He’s known for faking claims and getting putting calves right on top of wolves so he can get them killed. He’s the largest cattle rancher in WA and he’s a POS welfare queen
An Arabian horse 🐎😍
Move your ranch 😮😮 where winter is mild 😮😮around year grass😮🎉 your wonder why you did all those hard winter feedings😊
How many cattle have not been killed because of his present? Is there study?
Sehr guter und nützlicher Kommentar . Danke und weiter so❤
If this was mentioned in the film, sorry I missed it, but the Diamond M is right on the Canadian border south of Christina Lake. The wolves will come and go across the border the same way the deer, elk, moose, sheep and now turkeys do. There is a generous hunting season for wolves in that part of BC too by the way and no, hunting them hasn't decreased their populations measurably.
Welfair ranching
Hating the USG is starting to become very fashionable.
This documentary won’t give both sides of the argument. I applaud Daniel’s efforts, what this lacks to show is the wolf pack depredation that is continuing in the area, and casts those who are affected in a negative light. There are extremists on both sides, people may feel threatened by range riders, but wildlife officials who are hired by the state to shoot wolves have to hide their identities because of death threats. The same people who are applauding the wolf introduction will never live in an area where they will have to worry about wolf encounters.
Satanic rites, he is about money and nothing else
Arabian horse 👍
“We want to stop the wolf bc they are the ones that do the most damage to animals”. Well isn’t that what a wild predator does? Attacks animals and eats them
Was bedeutet die Massentierhaltung für die Natur bzw die Tiere.
Schaut es euch genau an und schaut nicht weg.😢
That quote made my blood boil. He said wolves do the most damage to animals? Has anybody even considered the numbers in the beef industry alone? Not even sheep, hogs, birds, just cattle -insanity. The lust for beef is slightly excessive, and that’s not just my opinion. A lot of Americans can’t go a day without multiple times eating animals piled on top of each other.
Dogs on average kill 2x what wolves do
Less cattle more boson.
All have rights 2 life
im with the Ranchers!
Props for Daniel! This wouldn't be an issue after all if people would switch to a plant-based diet and let animals live free!
I can't wait for the day these ranchers shut up shop for good.
Same, I will never support or have any sympathy for welfare ranchers and farmers, they don't belong on wildlife land, period.
今年は、一緒にサーフｨンかな
❤
I would love to come up, and help. Maybe just a month, or so ? camp, Keep watch, I have all my own gear. And I have lots of experience in the out doors. You don't even have to pay me !! thanks, Dances with the Wolves.
Oh he got Dobermann dogs.. well yes though aggressive animals.
Religtards believes in fiction. All sentient beings have a right to thrive.
Consider me a satanist, old man.
Balanced and well reasoned arguments...........all the way up until the rancher brought up Satanism.
The correct thing to do is to allow the state to manage them it’s not just the ranchers hurting it’s the mule deer elk sheep population are gonna feel it too
Wrong, wolves belong there, welfare ranchers and farmers and their invasive livestock don't. The correct thing to do is, end welfare ranching and farming. There's plenty of non-welfare ranchers and farmers out there to support.
