Andrew Simpson

Andrew was born and raised in Scotland. Even as a child he was drawn towards nature and was always the kid with a mouse or a frog in his pocket. But he also had a love of adventure. After leaving the Highlands, he travelled around the world several times before settling in Canada.

It was in Canada that all the stars aligned for him. Having a love of animals and a fascination with movies, he finallly found his calling – a professional animal trainer for the industry.

“It’s hard to imaging getting paid for something you love to do everyday, but I do…”

Almost 20 years later, his passion is still just as strong. With his love of nature and the outdoors, and vast film making experience, Andrews talents are in high demand. From the Australian outback to the Greek Islands to Northern China, he is constantly travelling the world, pursuing his dreams, and living life to the fullest.

Although he deals with all species, his speciality is wolves. It is because of this reputation that he was asked to travel to Siberia to make the biggest wolf film ever attempted. Having worked for almost every major Hollywood studio on over 100 productions, Andrew decided it was time to venture in a new direction.

“…What we do with wolves is very specialized, and people the world over are fascinated with them…”

This was the reason for making this film. Andrew wanted to show another side of wolves – a different side from the fairy tales and horror stories normally associated with them.”
