San FranciscoStill Wild at Heart (55 min, USA)
As San Francisco grapples with what it means to have coyotes as new residents, along comes San Francisco-Still Wild At Heart, a compelling one-hour natural history film that chronicles the return of coyotes to this citys landscape. Lyrical in style, the film is a virtual case study of the coyotes arrival in urban America, as it explores the complexity, conflicts, and richness of this fertile interface between urban life and wild nature. (Melissa Peabody, 2007)
The Wild Turkey Experiment (24 min, Canada)
Fifty years ago, a rural community in southern Manitoba introduced the wild turkey 750 kilometers north of its natural range. The bird thrived. But forty years later, the bird entered the nearby city of Winnipeg. Some people wanted them all removed. All began asking questions about the birds introduction. The film compares the rural to the urban experience and tells how careful management has, so far, been the story of the birds success. (John Whiteway, 2007)
