Wolves here are constantly moving and can roam up to 1000 square miles in search of prey. What intrigues you the most about these creatures?
Are they territorial towards other packs and you guys have the best job ever.
@@iheartbridalcouture5989 "They've depopulated the area". I dont think you understand how this works mate. You've depopulated the area. If you knew the least bit about wolves you'd know that killing just to kill isnt what they do at all. I'm sure you have some sort of personal or overheard "true fact" or "personal anecdote (that wouldn't support any real statistical data)".
It also intrigues me how they improve habitat and increase populations of species
@@iheartbridalcouture5989 lmao humans are notorious for depopulating areas and driving out wildlife (and other humans). Surprised you're so misinformed, assuming you follow NG. Also, you can't harvest wolves.
@@iheartbridalcouture5989 stfu
Wolf: Hey I've found us dinner
Bear: *Stands up*
Wolf: it's just a prank bro
That’s funny 😆 I laughed so hard AHAHAHAHAH🤣🤣🤣🤣
Made my day
Wolf: see there's a camera
Wolf: yeah you know there’s a bunch of humans right there right?
Wolf: o-okay WOAH d-dude! Calm down you don’t have to chase me!
The polar bear and wolves should just agree to eat the national geographic guys.
And everybody happy
Yes, that would make for a better film.😉
Haha best comment here!
👍👍😆😆😆
Genius!
Wildlife photographers should be praised for their effort!
They need medals and lots of money...heroes
Yeah right it's the dream job of anyone with a camera and a dog.
Definitely. So much better than "studying" animals in captivity.
For propaganda?
@@seadonkey6913 yes dey should be praised by klaus and his blackmailers for pushing climate change narrative
Dude they way the wolves just sat and chilled with them gave me chills! They for some reason even in they’re wild state where everything is food, still have some natural connection towards humans
That was incredible! It makes me wonder if they communicated with each other about going over to investigate the documentary crew
Truly fascinating
Did you see the word wink at 6:45 Lol
Nah. They're just confused by humans.......wondering whether to eat them or not. Research the omega of the pack....the rest of the pack attacks that member. They're just wild animals that kill for a living.
@@BrettMcNary they definitely do kill for a living for sure they literally have to😂 but an omega is a lone wolf that either just never had a pack to begin with or was banished from its pack by an alpha often times if surviving, being left with injuries from trying to stay with the pack once they turned on them. Yea ik wolves are viscous and they are also super skittish which is why I was so shocked to see them just laying down like that but in reality these wolves are probably just used to human interaction to an extant. My grandpa has deer around his house that he can just walk up to and feed corn 😂
@@Litfilmz agreed
Wolves: There are 3 of us and only one of you
Bear: I like those odds
Just about puts it even.
Corbin Anderson Polar Bear: I might be outnumbered but you are clearly outmatched
Wolves: ight ima head out
Corbin Anderson the mandalorian Lol
Bears: WOW a perfect dinner.
@@victorzhang3081 this is the way
Wolves: *circle polar bear*
Polar bear: "call an ambulance... But not for me!"
Polar Bear: Cameraman you might want to call a veterinarian to these wolves who thought it would be a good idea to take on a polar bear
Polar bear: “You’re walking over-but you’re limping back.”
I'm not here trapped with you you are here trapped with me
Bear: hold my beer
Hahahahha
HUGE credits to these film crews who actually risk their lives when trying to create a documentary like this. This is so amazing as I didn't expect a pack of wolves were to challenge a polar bear though.
Wolves wouldn’t attack humans unless were actually a threat but that polar bear would’ve ate them
Looks like a gun in the bottom left at 8:19 to avoid death by polar bear.
Is it a risk if you got a shotgun and your coworker? 🤔
Wolves have been my favourite animal for as long as I can remember. So majestic, fearless, intelligent, ferocious. Beautiful creatures.
It’s literally just a wild dog. Not to majestic if you ask me.

Something seems off like its a park or staged. Humans are easy prey.
Yeah The greatest predators and the destroyers of Earth

What a brilliant documentary.. the fact that the team was so close to the wolves was amazing.
those cameras can zoom a mile and still look close

Just take a moment to appreciate all the great photographers in the wild for their bravery, patience and passion in providing us with great visuals across the globe.
Dheeraj Varma I agree!! I’m mesmerized every time I see a clip like this and grateful they share with us! You can see they enjoy every minute of it.
How are they brave? They're surrounded with armed guides ready to shoot at all times.
and for occasionally feeding the bears with their flesh lol
Like the very last shot with the wolf howling with sleeping bear in the background. Amazing
brave no morons yes
I get that the wolves weren't being aggressive but the fact that these guys stared a full pack in the eyes just a few feet away from them is insane
Lying on the ground. Insane
I mean, there was a group of people and wolves are much less likely to attack a group, plus they had rifles, so there really isn't anything for them to be afraid of.
Guess you didn't see the guy on the jeep with the mounted 0.50 cal ready to rock and roll.
Thats why its said that most dangerous animal is human being
@@sonaresgratis7924 Feels like you haven't watched the video at all. They came over to the group
Bertie Gregory is freakin awesome! His dedication, enthusiasm, and humor make this footage such a joy to watch. Well done!
This video should have been titled: "Grown polar bear does not give a f**k about any pack"
";-)
😂
Agreed 🙌😂
Yeah. There'd be now way for them to "kill" such a large bear. It would be pretty tough just to get through all the hair. Predators (like wolves) are in NO WAY going to tangle with something so capable of hurting them -- unless they're just about starved and have absolutely no other choice.
Lol😭😭😭
TONY as they should!

And, the last scene is sooo artistic

@@MP-ut6eb 5 is definitely not enough.
@@goldenstatewarriors623 Wouldn't it be enough if they just jump the bear together. The bear shouldn't be agile enough to shake all of them off. Sure some of the wolves will die but the bear should go down.
@@davidtixable Ah I see, thanks for the explanation.
5 wont be enough. Even with 6-7 they wouldn't try. Polar bear is too big and thick for the wolves to do any serious damage. The bear will kill 2-3 of them instantly, and the rest will run away
The Alpha female looks so unique in that black coating. That's sick!
Yea she’s Beautiful
Alpha is a misleading term in the way wolves operates. Been around for ever but recently debunked because it studied wolves in captivity that were behaving strangely. They're just simply families in the wild, the 'alpha' are just the oldest members of the family. It's like calling your grandparents superior.
Best part is wolves are not racist!
@@elcheapo9444 Racs is a human invention
@@dadikkedude so your father wasnt the alpha of your family? It seems like a perfect word to describe their relationship.
The cinematic photography, the quality and perfect angles is just phenomenal. Period
...Thanks to all the producers and camera crew for this free content
The Polar bear is my favorite animal in the world. I've been up close to them, and they are incredible.
The wolves were looking at each other like, "You guys sure you want to bother this polar bear? I mean, it was sleeping and we kind of woke it up. Might be a bit ticked" 😂
😂
Smart move by the wolves to back off, it would of been an absolute blood bath

It really is!
I loved seeing those beautiful wolves. And I was surprised that they weren't aggressive to the film crew. Amazing footage! Excellent job of the film crew and producers.
shows how dogs got started 20,000 years ago. a few likely a bit hungry but curious wolves deciding to take a break near some humans with a fire that arent acting threatening, have just one of those people decide to offer some of whatever they hunted recently to the wolf / wolves and youll have a few tamed gray wolves ready to be domesticated by your tribe as they learn they can hunt with and protect the humans for more secure food very soon🤞🏽 wolves also have been seen partnering up with ravens and crows in group hunting strategies where they share the meal after. Theres alot of cool examples of the social nature of wolves that show how dogs became so undyingly loyal
@@JubioHDX Thank you for your post. It was very interesting. Wolves are so beautiful! I hope I can see wolves in person sometime, perhaps, at a zoo. My mom told me that when she was a girl, she'll never forget that a family across the street from her had a "Wolf Dog." Have a nice weekend! 😊
I am surprised but also happy by all the appreciation everyone is showing to the wildlife photographers.
That last shot with the alpha female howling in the foreground with the polar bear sleeping behind.... if that is a legitimate real time shot....it’s incredible
also a testament to the power and confidence of the bear, just sleeping peacefully with a wolf howling close by.
@@PantsuGod the polar bear 🐻 is at the top of the food chain in the artic
It isn't
I doubt that even 10-15 wolves would be able to kill a fully grown polar bear.
@@CheifSmokinDank I think 10-15 Wolves can get that done but I would almost guarantee that the bear would severely injure a few of them in the process

Hats off to Bertie and the rest of the Nat Geo team. Capturing such an amazing wildlife phenomenon that we couldn't have imagined, that too in such harsh climatic weather.
That was beautiful. Just what my heart needs to see. Thank you for showing the beauty of nature.
Was amazing to see the wolves intelligence as they hung around the humans seeing them as neither predator or pray. It’s scenes like this that make you think how our relationship with them might have gotten started 15,000 years ago as both saw more than just food in the other.
Absolutely, amazing to see that reaction. I'm guessing if it was one or two humans though, different matter. It's still essentially eat or be eaten!
Where dogs come from, hanging around the fire for scraps.
@@sroberts605 That's not true. Multiple wildlife biologists (on their own) have essentially lived with North American wolves for months on end, out in the wild. There are two recorded cases of death by wild wolf attacks in the entire recorded history of North America.
@@jaysoniorg2950 Perhaps what I should have said was that it was amazing to see how little fear there was from the wolves - I'm guessing they figure out quickly which humans are trying to kill them and which aren't. When you're intelligent and your species has been decimated by another, you get to change your usual behaviour pretty quickly.
However, try looking at the history of wolf attacks on humans. They were not uncommon. Even today in India, wikipedia notes instances of wolves entering huts where people are sleeping and taking children.
Great perception

If wolves were inherently hostile to humans we would never have domesticated dogs.
The Conversationalist I agree
It suggested that wolves started to follow humans because we left scrapes behind from our hunts and meals, things we couldn't eat or couldn't preserve in early human history.
In a lot of ways this makes sense given humans and wolves are both family oriented pro-social omnivores but with complementary skill sets. That just like cats and a number of other species proximity eventually lead to cooperation, which eventually leads to domestication and speciation.
And then we breed pugs........................
We never domesticated this species, the ancestor to the dog has been traced back to a now extinct canine that was not the grey wolf
@@malligrub Well....Duh.
I feel like using the connotative "wolves" was more then enough, rather then trying to single out a singular species.

They went up to the bear to see if it was a weak and if it was sick. Wolves are smart animals and take out the weak ones first for the eaiser kill
The immense weight of Cameraman's balls didn't let him lift himself up from the ground even when the Wolfs were just a couple feet away... Just Incredible

@@bertiegregorytv actually, Nordic wolves can be very dangerous. Some alaskan wolves were hunting people at one time.
Raj. His buddies probably had guns, so he probably wasn't worried.
Wolves or wild dogs would straight up eat u alive!
Most likely due to the number of support staff with weapons to defend.
They are very smart and won’t attack until they recognise clear dominance.
If the cameramen was alone, things could take a turn.

My upmost respect to the you guys , for enduring the harsh weather to give us amazing videos
I love wolves this was awesome/amazing

Who asked
@@flaccidego9468 How can you tell that it's a composite shot?
@@flaccidego9468It's not a composite shot. I saw them talking in a live talk that the wolf and the bear are around 100m apart, both sleeping, so the cameraman find a coordinate line and film them, and then the wolf wake up earlier and start to howl. She called her pack. This polar bear is different with the polar bear at the beginning of the video ( where he was take on by the wolf ). The polar bear was take on by the wolfs is a much younger and smaller polar bear.
