The Rewilders – Fierce Individuals. A Wilder Planet.

Fierce and passionate individuals are taking audacious measures to save a planet in crisis. The Rewilders is a visually spectacular short documentary that follows pioneering conservationists on three continents, working to rewild iconic species like jaguar, elephant, bison and salmon. The impact of their efforts is galvanizing a global movement, one species and one landscape at a time.

A must see award-winning short documentary.

This is a film showcasing people who highly value what sustains life across three continents rewilding habitats for keystone species like Pacific salmon, jaguars, elephants and bison.

This film includes the transformation of Gill Bar to St’óqweleqw, a critical habitat for salmon, sturgeon and wildlife.  This was Pelólxw Tribe led using the best of Indigenous and western science, and an intergenerational force.
