Relationship goals! Wolves who mate usually stay together for life. They're devoted parents and maintain sophisticated family ties. In fact, they develop such strong social bonds for their family and other loved ones, they’ve been known to sacrifice themselves for the survival of the pack.⁠

Our Missoula community really steps up to support

Our Missoula community really steps up to support IWFF. From the volunteers to the community judges to the audiences, we feel the love and are so grateful. But our fest wouldn't be half as successful without our amazing community sponsors. Last year we had over 80 sponsoring businesses and were blown away by your support!⁠
⁠
If you’d like to be part of #IWFF2020, there are so many ways your business, conservation group or nonprofit can make a difference. Your contribution affects more than our festival—it benefits our community, our wildlife, our planet. To learn more and sign up, head to wildlifefilms.org/sponsorship/⁠
