This is the story of how the coyote – once revered and reviled – has learned to adapt across diverse landscapes. While grizzlies and wolves narrowly missed extinction, the coyote has earned its status today as top dog.

In the exotic tundra of eastern Siberia a bizarre Canadian experiment is delivering extraordinary natural and human dividends.

Once Nature’s Stealth Fighter focuses, its unique first strike capability allows the Owl to swoop in for the kill on swift, silent wings in the dark of night. For most, there is no defense against the Owl. Shot on film and employing the latest cinematography techniques, leading experts guide us to a greater understanding of the Owl and its place in a larger theater.

Rich with wildlife unparalleled on the Arctic barrens, it is both one of the world’s oldest and largest wildlife preserves and in First Nation’s legends revered as the place where God began.

This is the exciting story of how scientists employ cutting edge technology on land, sea and in the air, to study the natural environment in amazing and heretofore impossible ways.
