Zoltan the Wolfman

Zoltan the Wolf Man follows the exciting day-to-day activities of Zoltan Horkai, renowned wild animal trainer. Animals on Zoltan’s farm just outside of Budapest, Hungary include bears, foxes, deer, wild boar, and most remarkably, wolves. These animals have been trained for TV and film productions through Zoltan’s ‘natural motivation’ training technique, which focuses on respecting the animals’ instinctive behaviours, a practice not observed in the training of domestic animals. By following Zoltan through the various commission requests he receives, the series offers an exclusive inside look into the way wild animals are trained to perform for television and film productions.

She-Wolf Trouble

This time on Zoltan the Wolf Man… Zoltan, Peter, and the wolves are off to southern Estonia, for a new commission. Before making the long trip to Estonia, Zoltan must attend to a few important issues at the training centre. It is mating season, and the wolves, especially the females, are behaving particularly aggressively. This makes training at the Horkai Centre very difficult, as the wolves are antagonistic and have very little interest in participating in any training exercises. Zoltan must separate the male wolves from the female wolves in order to maintain peace within the packs, and also to avoid any unplanned litters, which the training centre is not equipped to deal with at the moment.
