Join Oregon Wild and Green Fire Productions for an evening of film and discussion about wolves and other top predators in the West.
Top predators hold a key to life itself. Can people and predators coexist? Can we afford not to?
Tickets are just $7.00. Get your ticket here.
Birds, butterflies, beaver and antelope, wildflowers and frogs — could their survival possibly be connected to top predators like the wolf and cougar? For those who have seldom given thought to the great predators so often missing from the web of life, here is a world of reason to think again.
Following in the footsteps of wolves and cougars, and the scientists working to understand their place in the rapidly changing world of nature, award-winning filmmakers Karen 
and Ralf Meyer of Green Fire Productions have captured the predators' ongoing drama in their new documentary, LORDS OF NATURE: Life in a Land of Great Predators.
Narrated by Peter Coyote, this captivating documentary goes behind the scenes with leading scientists to explore the role top predators play in restoring and maintaining ecosystems and biodiversity.
Wolves and cougars, once driven to the edge of existence, are finding their way back -- from the Yellowstone plateau to the canyons of Zion, from the farm country of northern Minnesota to the rugged open range of central Idaho. Lords of Nature presents the engaging story of a science now discovering top carnivores as revitalizing forces of nature, and a society now learning tolerance for beasts they had once banished.
