Ep. 1 - The Call Of The Wolf

The elusive Iberian wolf is an endemic subspecies of the Iberian Peninsula, which has persisted in the Portuguese landscape during thousands of years of intense human occupation. Once occupied the entire length of Portugal, but nowadays it’s only present in some parts of the north and it is classified with the conservation status “Endangered”. The wolf has always been an animal that arouses contradictory feelings in humans. But, is the wolf as dangerous as the children’s tales would have us believe? In this episode, João Ferreira, a Portuguese nature photographer from Braga, who has dedicated himself to photographing the Iberian wolf, affirms that this big carnivore is not a dangerous species and he will tell everything he knows about this beautiful subspecies.
