The most diverse variety of mammals on the North American continent can be found in Yellowstone National Park. Coyotes live in abundance in this place known as "America's Serengeti." We are introduced to Cain, cast out of his pack for mating with the alpha male's partner. Since coyotes form lifelong partnerships, exile is the fitting punishment for this act of betrayal. Cain's year of solitary survival and subsequent return and domination within his original pack is a fascinating tale and offers viewers not only a year in his life but a year in the life of the park as his travels bring him into contact with a myriad of creatures that call Yellowstone home. --Cristina Del Sesto

Product Description

Danger in Yellowstone for a young outcast coyote! When a young coyote is cast out by his pack, he must learn to survive in a wilderness both beautiful and treacherous...Yellowstone National Park. As Cain the coyote's journey unfolds, he'll encounter a large cast of wildlife characters in what has been called America's own Serengeti. Set against the natural beauty of Yellowstone's changing seasons, from the steamy geysers in winter to the raging fires of summer, Cain's yearlong adventure of hardship and triumph will culminate in a final life-or-death confrontation with his original pack. In this remarkable film from National Geographic, you'll experience nature as never before in YELLOWSTONE: REALM OF THE COYOTE.

This review is from: National Geographic's Yellowstone: Realm of the Coyote [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This film is about the coyote's struggle to survive in Yellowstone National Park. The story follows Cane, a coyote who is ousted from his pack and must wander the park alone in search of food. The narrator gives information about the social structure of the coyote pack, and what happens when a coyote is forced to fend for himself. The narrator also follows the winter struggle for survival of many Yellowstone critters such as the buffalo, bear, badger, otter, and others. The role of hot springs and geysers in the animals' winter struggles is also discussed. This is a very entertaining and informative film and I would recommend it for anyone over 12 years of age.

This review is from: National Geographic's Yellowstone: Realm of the Coyote [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The Realm is a sweet film. It shows the stuggles a coyote named Cane has in his life. Cane gets tossed out by his pack for mating with this hot female coyote. Will cane be able to survive on his own? I found this movie breathtaking. I sugest you grab some pine and sit down for this one. It rates high on the meter!
