I like how the raven 🐦⬛ was chilling with them like ”well, maybe next time “ 😅
ravens have strategic alliance with wolves, u can research on it
The ravens like nobody fs with mehh... I m wid da Pack❤
Ravens and wolves are close allies. They often team up to find food, learn of danger, etc. There have also been cases of ravens and wolves playing games with each other.
Capturing footage in these conditions was not easy. The Cameraman's work was amazing
Nature at its Finest. Remarkable how the camera teams finds these images and videos, simply stunning…!❤
Takes a months long stakeout sometimes. As I’m sure was the case here.
Don't get fooled, they pay those actors good money
Animals are paid actors
@@Onetwothreefour. Remarkable none the less, I agree.🙏
Yellowstone has gotta be one of the most beautiful parks in the world and one of kind, the only place on Earth you'll see all of this wildlife together and it's an active super volcano to boot.
Was there in 2018 , snowmobile tour , a once in a lifetime , unforgettable experience , in fact, the highlight of our lives for me and my wife. I would recommend to anyone to do it if possible.
Mother nature is extraordinarily amazing
Very well filmed, documented and narrated, hats off to the BBC EARTH team to film that in these cold harsh conditions
The DRUIDS are a historical and legendary pack of WOLVES
Love BBC Earth for exploring nature 🍉
Wow 😮. Videographers killed this
Yeah. 🍡
hahahahaha 🫎🐺
You realise there's a rule against interfering with animals. Right?
Really that.
@@budget-cloaker and what does that have to do with anything? she just stated the filming skills were impressive
BBC Earth is the one team from BBC which I believe in their hard work.
I was really rooting for the elk “get back in the water, quick quick, yeaah that’s it” I swear BBC is to me what watching sports is to most men, snacks, drinks-the whole 9
Moral of the video 😂😂 Cameraman always survive
The elk is such a majestic beast
I’ve been archery hunting elk since 1979…. They are something else. There were 20,000 elk in Yellowstone and now wolves have them down to only 3,000. It’s rare to even SEE an elk in the park now. Moose have fared even worse. Those big animals can’t run in deep snow and the wolf can run on TOP, making it easy for them. Our herds are getting decimated by the wolf now, which is protected in many states.
@matteberhard-bt9ph
Please stop with your false information.
The herd in Yellowstone annual norms* are -
Summer: 10,000-20,000 elk in six to seven different herds.
Winter:
Matteberhard spamming this comment section with misinformation.
@@MattEberhard-bt9ph if you are hunting, you should know how balanced the ecosystem is
@@lukilsn I’ve been hunting since 77 for elk. Spent a full month each year for 15 years. Usually 2 or three weeks in wilderness areas all other years. I don’t even really understand the phrase “balanced” because it’s only as balanced as we steer it to be. If you think nature was more balanced 1,000 years ago you’d be wrong. Fires went out of control. No fire dept. Disease killed entire herds of every species when they overpopulate. Predators overpopulate and then wipe out entire species. THAT is what nature does left to its own. Turning wolves loose to breed at will and saying that’s a good thing is discounting all the peripheral damage done by them to other species. Wyoming and all western states have really been working on reintroduction of moose for 40 years and now they have these moose eating machines. If you spend time in the wilderness the carcasses are proof wolves are not good for anything but wolf lovers. They damage every other species.
Listen... the children of the night. What sweet music they sing.
Ok Dracula Gottfried
Yellowstone was so under rated. One of my favourite series
4:12 so beautiful
Eyes could be a bit bigger
this must be old footage as this pack succumbed to mange and no longer exists
Absolute beauty of narration....❤they always come up with something interesting
Starks charging at Baratheon.🙂🙂🙂
I love how the situation is in actually pure chaos but the video makes it seem quiet like this isnt life or death.
lessgoo i was rooting for the elk
Yayyyy elk made it
The Yellowstone herd has dwindled from 20,000 to only 3,000. Soon there will be no elk in Yellowstone. And that’s only 180 wolves doing that. We have 3,000 wolves in America from the original 12 that were released. Sickening. They are obliterating American wildlife.

@@MattEberhard-bt9ph That last sentence is a good thing,
Elks can have one calf per year. No way 4000 will produce 10, 000+ every year.

Completely false, lies, and BS. Propoganda at its finest!
Good clip with sensible voice-over! In Europe we call elk reindeer.
No tf we dont where are you from??
They are all very beautiful!
The shifting dynamic between hunter and hunted inspired some reflection about my experience of life, the shifting from actor to acted upon back to actor again non-stop, the ever-unfolding, ever-changing human drama. Like this drama here, so beautiful, so deadly.
Kudos to all involved in the making of what seems impossibly perfect. 🎉
I didn't know Elk are that big. He is massive
However big you think they are, they’re bigger. Puts in into perspective standing next to a mount of one or a living one.
They are the size of a large horse.
Это благородный олень. Лось ещё больше
@user-xt9kb8zf8u it's an elk u wiener
I didn't realise how big elks are until I saw one up close to my car while driving in Colorado once. It was scary. 😲
I was in Yellowstone a few months ago and our group observed a wolf pack chilling out in the snow waiting for a bison collapsed in the river to expire.
That exhalation of recognition from the elk that they were coming...
Amazing real life nature.
Elk escapes: "laterrr loserss!"
A WILD JOE ROGAN APPEARS
Your caption is wrong. The guy just told us that cold temperatures are putting elk at a disadvantage. Also, elk don't have prey. Otherwise great vid.
Wow elk is cunning! Vey inspiring video🙂Thank you for sharing
Thank you so beautiful
My first thought was a uboat wolf pack led by donitz😂
We all got to eat 👌🏻
Most species do not murder to eat. "Thou shalt not kill"...GOD
@@Braveheart.22shut up💀
No murder happening here, just wolves eating their natural food.@@Braveheart.22
@@Braveheart.22most animals murder to eat lmao
Incredible footage an narration!!!!
Elk is tired 😂😂😂
Those wolves were much faster and could have been on that elk. They were not even trying to engage at that point they were trying to take it for a long run so that it would be exhausted before the games begin.
I was kinda disappointed he escaped and they didnt bother to hunt him in pack
Really good story
this is so game of thrones esque
Great video.
I am fond of wild life since my childhood ❤🎉
This is phenomenal
do i see a dead elk buried in the snow bank? are those antlers?
Was combing and combing the comments for this. 10000% a previous kill or drowned/froze.
@@jamjam9930 you didn't need to comb through comments to confirm that. it was directly addressed in the video at 3:50.
Awesome footage
"Cold temperatures are putting these elk (not wolfs?) at an advantage, as their prey are weakened by these harsh conditions"
As you mentioned, it’s supposed to be “Cold temperatures are putting these wolves at an advantage, as their prey are weakened by these harsh conditions.” BBC dudes made a mistake in writing the description.
Kon kon BBC EARTH 🌍 ko ❤ karta hai
Tolles Video. Gruss Jürgen 🤠
I alway wondered just how wolves kill their prey, they really don’t seem as impressive as other predators. But maybe their intelligence is what separates them apart from other animals. You have wild dogs who are smaller than wolves and more vulnerable but they are literally land piranhas and tear animals apart.
Totalmente impresionante estas himagenes Los lobos🐺🐾son unos de mis favoritos.felicitaciones a BBC Earth.saludos desde COSTA RICA 🇨🇷
i like how the elk looks up and his mouth is so curly lol
Yes, a flip side of harsh winter is preys become weakened! Overlooked till now.
"The tables will turn" ? I didn't see any table there
Awooo .. 🐺

It was like a game of chess 😯😯😯

elks on my property all the time far north cal8fornia
they are almost the size of horses
huge mothers
Smoke a pack a day.
I just feel confused.. should I be happy for the prey or sad for the hunter...
And a big rack in the water
What no part two ?
Gotta pay for the subscription to watch
Wolves, like coyotes, are cowards….
How bout the other side?

What month of the year is this?
December or January maybe?
Def before February when the other BBC clip shows the same pack take down an elk for chowtime.
MasyaAllah😂
Kon kon INDIA sa hai uo like Kara ❤
DDC not BBC
Why not explain to us why the elk is not crossing the water to the other bank?
Eventually it crossed to the other side... It was reluctant maybe due to the fact that his herd was on the same side
Experience counts as a huge asset for survival. Taking a risk of getting cold, he succeeded in foiling wolves' attempt. Just for now. Advanced the season, everything frozen, less options, ....
There were 20,000 elk in Yellowstone and now wolves have them down to 3,000. Soon there will be no elk, and moose are doing even worse. Wolves were taken out for a reason, and America is finding out that reason. From the original 14 wolves there are now over 3,000. Females have 6 or 7 pups. It’s growing all the time and a wolf eats 16 to 24 elk annually. It was a bad idea.
@@MattEberhard-bt9ph thanks for your comment, which surprises me a bit. It goes against what's a generally held belief. I have no idea whatsoever about ecological ly proper figures of balance between prey & predator. Seemingly, you're much closer to the actual situation. Is it, say, in the process of adjustment or anything gone wrong? What is the local authority thinking about? Such a drastic decrease in number (over how long period?) is a serious source of concern. By the way, is the hunting by the wolf the sole, ultimate cause for sure?

Love my wolves!!! Actually' i love all animals. Period. People really need to leave animals alone!!!!!
Can I introduce to an Elk burger? 😂😂😂😂
We are the apex predator they leave us alone
This video is a direct rebuttal to the alpha male study and jordan peterson's fixation on hierarchies. The pack made the decision as a collective. When observed in the wild a lot of social animals are egalitarian unlike us
elk is so selfish and toxic for not sacrificing himself for the friend shaped wolf pack
👌👍🫡🙏❤️
Thats so mean, you need to drop the cell phone and get involved, I'm so tired of people seeing another person in distress, and then sitting back and claiming it was wolves or hungry predators, they are just looking for attention because there IS A Camera.
Have you never watched a documentary? There's a rule against helping the wildlife. The wolves also have to eat. Its just unfortunate for the elk
These people don't record with their cell phones! Please educate yourself

There were only a few thousand elk at the turn of the century due to people shooting them to feed their family. Same with deer. The US only had 4 million deer then. All big game animals were dwindling. Something had to be done. Sportsmen got together in the 1920’s in America and passed the Pittman Robertson Act, which taxed all hunting related items with a special 12% hidden tax. Shells, guns, bows, camo coats, boots, hats, and everything else hunting related is taxed at 12%. Hunters also created fish and game agencies for each state, which sold licenses for game animals, made sure poaching was kept to a minimum, and studied game species in order to better understand how many could be harvested and still keep herds growing bigger year to year. Today there are 30 million deer and a million elk in the US. Virtually every big game animal except the Bison is fourishing due to the steps taken back then by people who loved the animals and wanted to have enough to hunt. At the same time the wolf and the grizzly were obliterated. They could not be lived with if numbers were to be increased in herds of moose and elk and deer, but mostly stock growers lost money to their depredations. Why people in the US are now allowing wolves and grizzlies to be put back is somewhat understandable but to protect their out of control breeding is unforgivable. One wolf eats 16 to 24 elk per year and at this point we have over 3,000 wolves, when the original target number was promised to be only “less than 300”. The hunter paid for the wildlife. Now the hunter has no say in the wolf? Just because beavers built a dam, diverting a river does not mean wolves “changed a river”. Beavers do that in areas without wolves very regularly. 3 thousand wolves times 20 elk is 60,000 elk per year, and to a hunter who PAYS for those elk it’s ridiculous to let them out out 7 pups every year with federal protection. Just a thought from someone who lives around them.
Try living in Ontario with 10,000 wolves. It’s like a waste land here. We’ll have to face mass extinctions again before these idiots ever realize that wolves kill animals that don’t need to die.

@@camp44mag no they aren’t. They’re the worst thing on this planet. You can’t have an animal somewhere for 30 years and claim it’s good. The wolves are still dispersing. Wait till the wests population ends up like the population in Ontario where we can’t pack another wolf in then tell me how great they are.
@@camp44mag
Hey you’re entitled to your opinion and I get it. People think wolves are doggies. But the crux of the issue is how much did you pay for American wildlife last year. I paid $4,800 dollars just in tags and fees and hunters contribute 3 billion to the US economy annually. Hunters don’t want out of control apex predator numbers. All the info I gave is easily fact checked and the only place you see alternative views on it are from pro wolf fevered people. Wolves in Wyoming killed 19 cow elk and left them lay. They call that “surplus killing” and it’s a thing they do. They are not good for the ecosystem because sheep and cattle and 340,000,000 humans are now in that ecosystem.
@MattEberhard-bt9ph
As for me, I'm a hunter living in wolf territory and have spent plenty of not only my money on tags, licenses, conservation and other related items, but also my time volunteering and raising funds at various sportsman's organizations for charity, conservation, and fellowship. I find plenty of predator sign even within 100 yards of my door, hear neighbors' reports of direct encounters, and I carry in the field even when not hunting in case of necessity for defense,
I see and hear plenty of comments like yours, firsthand, from a few 'sportsmen' like you and from a few (not all) livestock farmers. Their comments boil down to the same as yours: a load of lazy, selfish, greedy, lies and whining.
You lost, again, as soon as you tried to deflect from your falsehoods with your attempt at peepee measuring with an impotent 'I spend $X, how much do you?' fail.
Please educate yourself much better and get back to me maybe after a few years from now.
I don't know what other people think. You seem to think you do. As seen in your own comments, you definitely spread misinformation.
Wolves ruined Yellowstone
Not sure how restoring balance to ecosystems ruins them.
😂 another sheeple that has no idea how an ecosystem works.
@@hyenaboy7504 humans cant restore balance by intervention, despite the arrogance that causes some to think otherwise. natural systems are far too complex for human intervention to ever succeed. over the 100 years since wolves were driven extinct in the region, the ecosystem developed a new equilibrium. imagining that we can disrupt that and improve the ecosystem is human idiocy on full display. the fraudulent academic literature surrounding the supposedly successful "trophic cascade" that occurred following the reintroduction of wolves in yellowstone has, predictably, been thoroughly debunked by real scientists. an article published in the NYT last month recounts the current state of research, which currently recognizes that everything written about the trophic cascade was complete nonsense.
