USDA Repurposes ‘Marriage Story’ Scenes to Scare Away Wolves

The US Department of Agriculture is using a dramatic scene from the 2019 film “Marriage Story” to scare away wolves that have been attacking cattle in Oregon. The drone-powered “wolf hazing” method involves playing loud sounds and bathing the area in spotlight, with footage from the movie’s intense fight scenes used to amplify the effect. This approach has reportedly reduced wolf attacks on cattle from 11 per 20 days to two over an 85-day period.
