America's Last Red Wolves

National Geographic follows in the footsteps of a pioneering pack of red wolves reintroduced to the wilds of North Carolina - the Milltail Pack. Because so little is known about the red wolf in the wild, the species was virtually exterminated before anyone thought to study it. We will observe, along with wildlife biologists, wolf behavior that has never been seen before. But RED WOLVES AT THE CROSSROADS is as much a human story as a natural history program. It is a harrowing, sometimes heartbreaking and ultimately triumphant tale of unsung heroes who have refused to give up on a great doomed canine and whose legacy reverberates in today's attempts to save predators the world over.
