Synopsis/Details
Set against the backdrop of the untamed wilderness of South Dakota, Wolfer tells the story of the elusive Custer Wolf, a cunning predator whose legend loomed large over the region. The wolf evaded capture for years, confounding hunters and trappers alike. Locals claimed that he was not just a wolf but a "monstrosity of nature", a hybrid between a wolf and a mountain lion.
H.P. Williams, a skilled and determined hunter renowned for his expertise in tracking elusive wildlife, embarks on a relentless pursuit spanning months. Wolfer meticulously chronicles Williams' pursuit, highlighting the strategies, setbacks, and the intense cat-and-mouse game between hunter and prey, while Williams confronts his own inner demons and what waits for him back home.
