The howling moutain

A Sunday in February in the local newspaper, the wolf is on the cover. In Savoy, the growing presence of this protected species is a subject of debate. I choose to follow the wolf’s trail, or rather those who speak about it : farmers, shepherds, hunters, park wardens, mountain guides or hikers share their stories with me. This project talk about men and wolves, predation, little red riding hoods’ stories. It’s a mix of anger, fear, fascination, with myths and legends about this animal. This project brings together photography, audio recording and writing.
