Peek into hidden life of wolves at Warren Miller Jim and Jamie Dutcher will present “Living with Wolves,” a multimedia presentation on the hidden life of wolves at the Warren Miller Performing Arts Center of Big Sky, Wednesday, August 24th at 7pm. Tickets to this National Geographic Live! production are $40 and available by visiting www.warrenmillerpac.org/.
Wolves present an opportunity for educators to illuminate the interconnected world and the importance of our ability to reason about those interconnections, and to make far-reaching decisions that positively impact the world. Wolves are still persecuted by a mostly fearful and misinformed public. After an award-winning filmmaking career, Jim Dutcher turned his energies to a life-altering focus: the wolf. For six years, he and his wife Jamie lived in a tented camp bordering Idaho’s Sawtooth Wilderness and documented the social hierarchy and behavior of wolves. Learn more about the world the wolf faces today and workable solutions for its survival. Get a rare glimpse at the majestic animals that share the social characteristics of elephants and the DNA of dogs, and play an important role in balancing ecosystems. Living with Wolves’ longstanding relationship with National Geographic enables their unique programming, outreach, publications, and educational materials to reach a wide and diverse audience. Jim and Jamie Dutcher’s multimedia presentations through the National Geographic Live! speakers series are extremely popular, while their publications in partnership with National Geographic—like The Hidden Life of Wolves, study guides, and books for children—allow Living with Wolves to reach out to thousands of people to bring about change for wolves. Living with Wolves also has a traveling museum exhibit on wolves through National Geographic. To learn more about Living with Wolves, please visit www.livingwithwolves.org/. •
