Watching the musk ox coordinating their efforts at protecting the calves was impressive. As the herd ran to gain distance a musk ox would break off to confront the wolves and after three or four of them used the tactic, the herd would stop and guard the young as they waited for the other to rejoin them. Amazing strategy, especially compared to other herd animals which just scatter and take the loss.
They literally peel'd lol. They absolutely let the biggest and baddest to solo the wolves at the base of the defensive chain. It was impressively coordinated!
showing the cinematographer's face in wildlife documentaries is akin to breaking the 4th wall in movies.
Hattori Hanzo yeah somebody tell that man nobody want to see his face
Good thing they had an extra cameraman just for that. /s
I found it annoying
We are all in agreement 🙋🏾♂️🙋🏾♂️🙋🏾♂️🙋🏾♂️ please sir just your voice.... your face is unnecessary to the footage.😒😒😒😒😒
the show named " snow wolf family and me" not just "snow wolf family" so it makes sense ok??
Also I saw comments like "how did they get this footage"and"I really appreciate the cameraman" in other wildlife documentaries clip a lot so isn't it cool to put those hard working people in the show ? Ok a least I don't have problems with it
Love how the muskox all work together instead of most herbivores which run and leave each other behind when being attacked, like antelope
Their time to maturity and small herd numbers makes leaving young behind pretty impractical. I’m sure they used too, and the ones that left others behind were weened out by natural selection
Because antelope are not built for fighting back? Trying to confront the predator would just be suicidal.
Yes, quite common among bovines...which also included the African Cape Buffalo, American Bison, and Asian Water Buffalo.

incredible footage of a guy recording.
he was annoying.

He only had one camera, so whenever changing shots in the big camera he could either make you dizzy or switch to the selfie shot.
What a prick. “ my wolves”..........
Wouldn't have been smarter for the wolves to go for the camera man lol
Wolves dont attack humans.
Only if they're desperate for food.
really?
@Joe Marano for real, search humans steal meat from lions. A true lesson in the danger of messing with humans.
@Joe Marano as much as I love Lions and a pride of them would be scary... I think finding yourself in front of a lone hungry Tiger would be worse 😰. So much more ferocious and powerful, and you can write off Climbing a tree off the escape list lol. At least if there's a really really big tree there's a good change the Lions wont be able to climb it all the way up (I know they climb too but they aren't like cheetahs or Tigers that actually are very good climbers.) At least a very tall one or one with many thick branches so you can zig zag in the branches hopefully for the lions to fall or give up.
I am addicted to these kinds of doc..thanks to bbc

from far away the muskox look kindof like massive guineapigs
capybara?
You sound dumb
A guinea pig? That’s something nazzy from the Norris nuts needs
Khadija Aweys not those weirdos
they are actually closer related to sheep and goats then cows
the Muskox had pretty top notch tactical movements, where the bull would charge / scare to make space while the rest of the herd scuffle upward, and repeat. They covered their young in the flank so well the wolf never had a chance to get near at all
I don't mind the commentary of the guy, but I was annoyed every time it cut to a close-up of his face.
I mind the commentary too
I'm annoyed by your face.
Yes, very annoying.
Yap Yap Yap.. Complain complain complain.
But yet, does not have balls to do what that guy does. Unbelievable

Wolves are so coordinated it’s really amazing some of the highest levels of teamwork
These ox are so smart and cool. They seem very peaceful and I love how that made a circle around the young ox

They're not smart!
Tupolew Tu-154 No dumb ass y'all white boys don't know shit they are they are in the family Bovidae, which includes sheep,goats, etc
It’s amazing at well how & organized the Muskox were at protecting the young ones .... and they were HUGE!
Musk ox are actually pretty small compared to Buffaloes and Bisons with the big bull Musk ox weighting a maximum 600kg with 500kg being the average. while females are maximum 400kg.
Muskox are generally peaceful animals as long as you don`t make yourself a threat to them. I feel like you`re making people scared when you say that they have a bad attitude towards everything. I live in Norway and the muskox are everywhere where I live. As long as we respect them, they respect us.
For any other drama queens in the comments, this wasn't *just* a wildlife show, it was a show about Gordon Buchanan's life as a wildlife cameraman, too. That's why he appears so much, it was HIS life as well as the creatures he was filming.
Yes and he is really professional and cool so we should appreciate him
Also since the show named "snow wolf family and me" not just "snow wolf family" it makes sense he appeared 🤷♀️
So it’s ego?!
@@jjmuni It's mystifying why you should ask that, why "ego", he didn't write the script.
@@TonyEnglandUK still it ruins the whole thing. It is as narcissistic as it gets. But none has to watch. At least I couldn’t stand it long
Why are we watching a recording of him record??
@Alteori HEY I KNOW YOU
Good question
Because the show named Snow Wolf Family And Me not SNOW WOLF FAMILY
Because you don’t usually see a man with these equipments in the wild? Much rare than animals hunting their preys lol
لاو قلنا صغيرا واليس كبيرا
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The camera man just needs some friends 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
I find these muskox very fascinating, and I would love to see them in person. WOW!!!
Look at that ground. What on earth does an animal as big as a muskox eat to stay alive?
This is Tundra the ground is covered by mosses and lichens...these are their food.
Arctic willow and alder shrubs.
Saw the same scene with a herd of muskoxen when I worked one summer on Ellesmere island in 1975. We were in a geological survey camp a couple of miles from Eureka weather station. The helicopter pilot dropped the helicopter engineer and I off for a hike about 10 miles north of camp. We came over a rise and spooked the muskoxen. At first, they froze trying to understand what they saw and if we were a threat, and then got nervous and backed into a circle to protect themselves. Like the cameraman here, we were nervous because we knew how fast they can run. It was a standoff for a few minutes until they turned and ran in the opposite direction. A very memorable hike and a day in the far North.
Those wolves are incredibly defiant (and hungry) to risk getting clobbered by a bull. Imagine being hit by a locomotive.
Know what was great? The animals. Know what wasn't? The human being.

Love the wolf stopping for a stretch, looking like oh Muscox I never noticed u there lol.
0:50 the school when you whip out a chewing gum packet
That guy did a great job of recording him
The Muskox are well coached. "Whatever happens, stay in formation." Some were tempted to break ranks like the wolves wanted, but they won in the end.
you can see how they survived the ice age,they're well equiped against cold weather and above all "really know how to protect their calves from dangers" !
The nature in action ! Beautiful !
This is very good quality video, worthy of the BBC. Some very fine photography. The photographer was never in much danger, neither of these creatures have a reputation for attacking humans. I hope to see more scenes like this in yeas to come, maybe in an "upper Pleistocene Park." Cheers.

Every few minutes the musk ox remember how large they are and just stare down the wolves.
I love when the prey sticks together and give that look to the predators:
Back off!!!!! I dare you to touch us!!!!!!
Imagine saying “my wolves”, who does this guy think he is
A professional wildlife film maker
Kieran MCElrea Shut up
Cheeze Empire yea he is filming wildlife, they could kill him if they wanted to do so he shouldn’t say my wolves stupid
Moon Sharon Kim No, what u gonna do now?
Kieran McElrea bro ur just sad at this point get a life fuck face
I have always been interested in how these films are made and admire the courage and persistence of these film makers. So I absolutely loved that I could see the film maker himself, too.
Same here.
One word to describe this....
AWESOME!
Such amazing content. I wish it were longer than 4 minutes. This type of video would be better if they allowed longer periods of time without commentary, so that the movement of the animals can speak independently a little.
Look how no one gets left behind, these muskox are like a Roman Testudo always keeping in rank never letting wolves break through. These things should be called "warrior-ox" instead. Amazing corridonation to any standard.
Yea... except one small point. At the end the herd is running away and there are no calves with them.
And here we have a camera recording a wild cameraman. Beautiful and Magnificent
Everything was so exciting except the camera man showing himself and telling me something which i can imagine!! Stop showing your face!!
S.M A so true..ugly face ugly telling like ppl have no clue what is going down
The poor guy... He studies for years, follows his passion, takes on the harsh conditions of nature to bring out this awesome documentary for the world... In the end a couple of whiny bitches on TH-cam doesn't like looking at his face... You people are so unempathetic...
You are missing the point. Viewers of a wildlife doco want to watch the wildlife, not a close up of a cameraman's face. Happy to hear him narrating, not happy to see him 'mugging' for the camera.
I didn’t mind it at all, sheesh TH-cam is full of whiny bitches
That's because you have bad taste.
This was great, and I found the addition of the shots of the cameraman interesting, as it put this scenario in the context of human interactions. He was there, so he might as well show it.
I mean, that's what this documentary was about. The wolves end up becoming very trusting of him. Plus we get an insight into how wildlife films are made.
And yet people still complain about free stuff...
Everyone’s on about the cameraman’s close ups be greatful that you have footage of these amazing animals
*YES*
Unbelievably stunning video. Amazing work.
3:37 that muskox really just shifted gears and thought "You know what? How do you like it?"
Oh my, my heart was pounding too, so excited. Give us more please.
All you're movies are stunning, thank you for all Xxx

What a job... Pure blessing
The ox defense was impeccable......their style was impregnable
2:08 My yorkie does the exact same stretch all the time. Just shows that dogs are still a little bit wolf
The cameras of the future will allow you to record nature and yourself reacting to nature at the same time.
I luv how the mascows stood their ground against the wolf lol
Wow! Such an amazing footage!
I love how the only objective in nature is to keep for your young
"That was exciting." Translation: "We don't know what happened over the hill because we only have one photographer and no camera drone, so... _That's all Folks_ "
I adore Muskox and Buffalo, "majesty on the hoof." God favors the Brave.
there is an excellent documentary made in Russia showing two scientists spending a winter with musk ox which have been introduced to...sorry not sure where, but I believe it is a remote peninsula in Northern Russia . During the filmed observations you learn how Musk Ox group together in a semi-circle (as we see here), when facing danger.
Awesome animals they all are! Wow nature❤️🌞✨
i actually enjoyed the camera man’s appearances. i am interested in wildlife photography and this shows his side of the story. we usually only see the beautiful footage but i want to see how it’s done :)
Wow!!! Amazing nature!!!!
The Muskox's running sounds like Thunder breaking down.
"I am in a very dangerous position.. Its a good thing i have these 3 armed body guards with M-16 Rifles, Hand guns and a lot of bullets ducking below me, and a sniper that of course I will not show you so you will fear for my life." :)
This kinda sounds like Vietnam being surrounded by the VC
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
this guy's videos are always inconclusive especially when it comes to where something is about to happen.
Plot twist behind him was a Huge Bear 😂
Beautiful animals doing what they do best !
I’m very very grateful for the footage and the time these guys put in to capture these amazing moments and the commentary is educational as well but I could do without the cameraman being filmed as well. The camera shots are there to make us feel like we are witnessing this ourselves and when the cameraman is being shown it kinda takes that away. Great footage though.
I actually liked that they showed the camera mans reaction. It is amazing work and he deserves some recognition. ImThe commentary kind of makes you apreciate the moments more
I agree some people complain about the stupidest things
What a captured moment.
That's a fluffy doggy ❤️
This is the first time I've seen Muskox run away from wolves when they have calves. They usually form a Circle of sorts with their heads outward and the calves in the middle of the circle.
Can I be his assistant!! He has the best job in the world!!
Nisha Ismail best and also a very dangerous one
Ikr I’m becoming a zoologist when I grow up
What best job showing himself like a model
he is alone eating can food, drinking who knows what, it look amazing but its not all that glamorous...
I always loved your video... They are just fantastic... 🤘
My little dog, Pincher has the same stretch movement 2:08 as wolfs, he's not more than 25cm tall, and he's so brave and agressive though, nature is amaizing.
I've seen my small cattle herd do those "Musk OX" maneuvers on domestic dogs. But was I surprised. Obviously at night they had dealt with canines before; it was well co=ordinated, especially my bull and the four senior mother cows. They had a plan, and stuck to it.
I don't know why in these BBC documentaries always one important aspect is convincing the audience that the crew are in huge danger. And always nothing happens to them ...
thanks, great documentary, no faults
😂 the wolves should be named the three musketeers 😂😂
Really disappointing when you are watching a chase in which wolves are stalking a herd that is trying to protect their young, and it culminates with the cameraman focusing on the herd getting away, but the 3 calves are gone, and no explanation of what happened to them. That's wildlife footage failure!
I know this is a late reply, but at the end the "herd" we saw was only a smaller portion of the full herd. It was just the adults that were giving the rest cover while they ran, then it was their time to run too. The calves are with the rest of the adults and while we don't get to see that, I doubt the 3 wolves would have taken down 4+ adults and 3 calves!
Everything went well until the guy showed his face
The oxen looked like moving couches! hahaha. Smart couches though. Smart couches though, the wolves were trying to make them run and snap at the heels of the one trailing behind the rest but they were not able to do that with the bulls standing ground, letting the wolves past them, them come up behind the wolves, breaking their concentration. soooo cool.
Romulus is an ultra dank wolf name, nice one
"A haird of Muskox." Allow me to translate: "A herd of muskoxen."
This documentary was about the man and then Muskox and wolfs showed up
0:43 „I am in very dangerous position, trapped between the wolves and their prey.“
Literally next sentence:
„Now, this could get interesting“
Every person needs a calm and peaceful life. 🌳🌲💚👍
the guy with the camera ruined everything
He also filmed everything. So I guess it's even.
the show named Snow Wolf Family And Me not SNOW WOLF FAMILY
hahah he's sucha fanboy ;D
That is excellent teamwork
Rare footage of a cameraman getting a footage of the wild..
Seriously rugged. Makes me want to be a part of it in the wild, but glad I don't need to.
The camera guy tries to make this about himself with his "Oh My gods". And who wants to see him anyway?
Great and lucky....Thank you for being there :) what a coincidence.
Amazing footage
I don't get it. Why don't the wolves prey on the hobo, uh I mean, the cameraman, instead?
if you had watched the entire documentary, you will find that these are the first humans ever to be in this island, the wolves had no fear.
Top ten anime battles
I've never seen a documentary where the cameraman is seen so often lol
You've seen a clip from a documentary. If you'd seen the documentary you'd appreciate how it's about him forming a relationship with these wolves and is more of a behind the scenes of filming nature documentaries.
The Musk Ox it's alived since Glacial Era !!
YOU CAN'T STOP THERE. WHAT HAPPENED? DID THEY CATCH ANY?
No they all starved to death

Number Eight cooool.
Pay a TV licence in UK or a fee and you can see it all! This is the point of these 4/5min clips. Money grabbing
The Muskox need to attack rather than just form a circle, have the circle and also have some others that trap and kill the wolves
Awesome documentary
Wolves are wondering who put those thick blankets on those Muskox.
