Central Europe sees the return of a long dreaded but also mythologized predator. The discussion about the risks and chances of this situation is passionate and feelings run high. What do we really know about those shy animals? Until today, it is a mystery for scientists, why young wolves cover the unbelievable distance of more than 1,000 kilometres in their search for a new territory. The story of three wandering wolves throws some light onto their fascinating everyday life. They roam across Europe, cross torrential rivers, climb up rock faces, traverse frosty mountain ranges. They overcome barriers of civilization, highways, secured borders and big cities.
