Wyoming: Predators, Prey and People


About the Documentary

It’s one of the greatest conservation stories in American history, but also one of the most controversial. The extraordinary comeback of wolves and grizzly bears in Wyoming has sparked a national debate surrounding their removal from the endangered species list.

Sportsmen, tourists, wildlife photographers and environmentalists travel to states like Wyoming, hoping to catch a glimpse of these predators in the wild. Wyoming: Predators, Prey & People showcases some of the most amazing grizzly and wolf footage ever captured. It also explores the complicated nexus between hunters, hikers, ranchers, outfitters and environmentalists and how these charismatic predators impact game herds, livestock and people throughout the region.


Gerald McRaney - Host

One of Hollywood's most accomplished veteran actors, Gerald McRaney most recently starred on HBO's award-winning series "Deadwood," and CBS's "Jericho," which was nominated for Best Network Television Series. Prior to that, Gerald spent eight years as the irrepressible, yet immensely likable private investigator Rick Simon on "Simon and Simon," after which he went on to become the nation's favorite U.S. Marine in "Major Dad."

Gerald has managed to avoid the pitfalls of typecasting by paying his dues as a working actor in a myriad of stage productions, TV shows and motion pictures. He is not your run-of-the-mill male lead. Over the years, he has excelled in a wide array of characters from farmer to hit man, from vigilante to Vietnam veteran, from old west gunfighter to a southern corrupt sheriff.
