Alberta's woodland caribou herds are collapsing as tar sands development tears through their habitat, and the provincial government's response is a wolf cull, thousands of wolves shot from helicopters or poisoned, framed as conservation. DeSmogBlog's investigation follows the money and the biology behind that decision, asking scientists and wildlife experts why killing predators gets funded while halting industrial expansion does not. A First Nations chief speaks to what the loss of caribou means on the ground, beyond the policy debate in Edmonton. The film sets this cull against Canada's marketing of its oil as "ethical oil," cleaner and more responsible than supplies from the Middle East or Russia, and treats the wolf program as a case study in what that label is built to obscure. Interviews carry the argument rather than narration, moving between biologists explaining caribou decline and industry critics tracing the cull back to tar sands expansion the government has chosen not to slow.
