Not kidding! PBS Nature ran the full episode a while back. (I think you can still see it via their app, and some streaming sites, like Roku.) It's one of my favorites. Stoffel was known to go into the house, pull open the freezer door, pull out a hunk of frozen meat, and consume it. He would also wreak havoc on the neighboring farms, by going after their chickens, bee hives, etc., which is why he no longer lives in the wild.

and bringing it back? And why not just let it live free?
