Endangered Wolf Center

Our African painted dogs got a special howl-o-ween enrichment- a haunted house full of spooky surprises and tasty treats!

Where do African painted dogs get their name? It comes from their strikingly unique coats - each one as distinct as a fingerprint! Can you tell the difference between our African painted dogs at the Endangered Wolf Center? What unique features stand out that set each of them apart?

Did you know that an Arctic fox has dark skin underneath its white coat - similar to the polar bear? This is so they can better absorb and retain heat, which can help them in colder environments like the frozen Arctic.

Happy Wolf Awareness Week! 🐺💛 We're kicking off the celebrations with our biggest event of the year at Wolf Fest, happening here at the Endangered Wolf Center! 🎉 The event has so far been a huge success, and we're thrilled to see so much love and support for wolves today!

Did you know that the swift fox is the smallest of North America’s wild canids, weighing between 4-8 pounds? Putting it into perspective, that’s smaller than your average house cat! 🐾 Would you like to see our foxes and wolves? Visit the Endangered Wolf Center on October 19th for Wolf Fest!

We’re celebrating World Animal Month at the Endangered Wolf Center! Wolves play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy, balanced ecosystem. One of the most endangered wolf species, the American Red Wolf, is a key example of this. Sadly, fewer than 20 remain in the wild today. Their survival has been made possible thanks to the tireless efforts of wolf conservation centers and other zoological facilities, including the Endangered Wolf Center, which has helped reintroduce this once-extinct-in-the-wild species back to their native range. Please consider symbolically adopting an American Red Wolf pack at the EWC to support our work in rewilding and protecting this important keystone species. https://lnkd.in/ep-rKxXd
