- "When a cougar shows up in British Columbia's Gulf Islands National Park Reserve, Park Warden John Haffcut sees it as an opportunity to deal with the overabundance of deer that have transformed the islands into an ecological hodgepodge.

- Abstract
- Highway Wilding sets out to convince us that roads as we know them are a serious problem and make a case for doing something smarter, and achieves both beyond all doubt. Better yet, it deepens into the long-distance lives of animals and evokes that powerful sense of nature as a world operating outside of our daily understandings. Everyone will have their own moment where the film crosses over from interesting to urgent; for me, it was the story of a transplanted lynx that walked over 1500 kilometres home from America. Beautiful." - J.B. Mackinnon - author of 'The 100-Mile Diet' and 'The Once and Future World' (2013)
