TV Series
Animal Planet series, “Wolves and Warriors”.
Some of it was filmed in Montana shedding a light on the plight of wolves and the secreted, hidden, unregulated world of trapping.
Initially fearing it was another trick of the trappers, we at Trap Free had the honor of meeting some of these brave warriors when they first came to Montana to learn about trapping and about why there would be any animosity towards wolves.
One of the series, at least, “Operation Wolfguard” exposes the poachers and illegal trap sets on our public land in Montana.
