The movie "The Grey", which is coming to theatres nationwide this week, is another example of creating fear out of false stereotypes. The movie is about an oil drilling team that becomes stranded in the wilderness and subsequently is hunted by a pack of wolves. This is completely ridiculous of course since there is little to no evidence of wolves ever attacking humans, and everyone knows that it's the oil drilling that threatens species like the wolf and not the other way around. The wolfs in the United States are already facing numerous challenges in returning to a healthy and sustainable population, and this movie only encourages more false beliefs about these animals which play an important part of a healthy ecosystem.
