Movie Night + Discussion with Film Director: San Francisco - Still Wild at Heart

Please join us for a wonderful film and an informative discussion with the film's director, Melissa Peabody.

Award winning documentary, San Francisco—Still Wild At Heart, is a virtual case study of the arrival of coyotes in our urban communities. This film has been described as "uplifting, lyrical, moving" and "an absolute treasure of a film."

Unfolding first in San Francisco, the film follows the story of the coyote across the national canvas—to New York City's Central Park; to Chicago, where more than 2,000 coyotes live today; and to rural California, where sheep ranchers find promise in innovative non-lethal predator control methods to protect their livestock.
