I especially loved the bit where they hadn't eaten for weeks, and when they found those buffalo and gave chase, all of a sudden Storm kept going, spotted something else up ahead, which even surprised all those buffalos they were chasing, and then they all just gathered there, relaxing and taking a drink, with that one big, bull. They didn't attack it, even though they hadn't eaten for weeks again, they just waited for it to die naturally overnight, I thought that was pretty amazing how they knew - nature is wonderful isn't it.
I didn't see the bit with the calf they left hamstringed coz I came in half way through
, but I'm definitely going to catch up with that first half, this is not to be missed viewing imo.
Beautiful cubs, never seen wolves quite like this, they were big and chunky not like the skinny things we see elsewhere.
