Every time I see/hear a wolf or read about encounters with them, I think back to this movie.

  Some of what is shown has been proven wrong, but the story overall is still very entertaining.

The "marking" territory scene is a classic. I had an old timer who hunted/trapped for a living in Alaska tell me if you wanted to keep predators away from your camp, you needed to do what he did? He swore it works but regardless, I do my best to mark my camps when solo that way. Wink Grin Grin

I figure it can't hurt and I enjoy that freedom for some bizarre reason.  Huh Grin Grin

When I ski and share the trails with wolves I will mark where they mark. Seems to create a frenzy of tracks and more marking for my next outing.

I loved that movie when it first came out and then I got the book.  Farley Mowat has become a favorite author of mine and I probably have 4-5 of his books now.  Never Cry Wolf is even better on paper.  Smiley

Sounds like the makings of a feature movie..."Pisses With Wolves."

I do not think you want to start a pissing war with one! Your tent may reek for a long time!
