Wild Things Panel Discussion Sept 2013 by Project Coyote published on 2013-10-11T05:20:25Z In collaboration with the Natural Resources Defene Council (NRDC) and other partners, Project Coyote co-sponsored several Northern California screenings of the award-winning documentary Wild Things. Wild Things reveals the problems plaguing the USDA's Wildlife Services predator control program and sheds light on the humane, non-lethal methods that many ranchers have adopted to protect livestock and to coexist with carnivores. Project Coyote Executive Director Camilla Fox, and Science Advisory Board members Dr. Robert Crabtree and Becky Weed are all featured in this important film. The Marin County Livestock and Wildlife Protection Program is also discussed as a model for coexsitence. In the panel discussions that followed, panelists shared their perspectives on the value of humane, ecologically sound livestock protection practices and the need for reform within the WS program. Panelists included Camilla Fox (Executive Director, Project Coyote), Keli Hendricks (Predator Friendly Rancher and Project Coyote Advisory Board), and Marcia Barinaga (Barinaga Ranch, Predator Friendly Rancher, Marin County).
