What
happens when a protected predator threatens an endangered prey? High
in California's Sierra Nevada, the last few native bighorn sheep are
fighting for survival. Threats from mountain lions have forced wildlife
officials to take extraordinary measures to protect the bighorn. Two
remarkable men stand between the bighorn and extinction. An oboe-playing
mountain man turned consummate scientist finds an unlikely ally: a
mountain lion tracker of skill and instinct - a modern-day frontiersman.
"Throughout
the film I was seeing things
that no one else gets to see.
My breath was taken away."
