Animal wellbeing is at the heart of our work–during Animal Welfare Week and every week.

The Association of Zoos and Aquariums defines wellbeing as “a state of being comfortable, healthy, or happy,” supported by lifelong opportunities for animals to thrive.

At the Endangered Wolf Center, we’re proud to have been accredited by the AZA for 25 years! Each department contributes to that commitment in unique ways. Our animal care team puts thoughtful care into practice, while our education team helps guests understand the connections between animal care and conservation.

You can find out more about animal wellbeing on The Association of Zoos and Aquariums' website at: https://www.aza.org/about-animal-wellbeing

It’s DAF Day!

Did you know your Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) can be a powerful way to support the wolves you love?

A Donor-Advised Fund allows you to recommend grants to charitable organizations like the Endangered Wolf Center, helping provide vital support for conservation, education, and the future of endangered wolves.

If you already have a DAF, consider recommending the Endangered Wolf Center as a beneficiary. Your generosity can help ensure that endangered wolves have a future in the wild.💛

Not every species on the brink is critically endangered–some are just one step away.

Maned wolves are currently listed as “Near Threatened " on the IUCN Red List, which means they are under threat of becoming extinct. Declining habitat, human conflict, and disease from domestic dogs could push them further.

Say hello to Lucky & Luigi, a resident maned wolf pair at the Endangered Wolf Center. Maned wolves are easily recognized by their black manes, fox-like faces, and skunky scent.

As a keystone species, maned wolves help maintain the delicate balance of South America's grassland ecosystems. Their conservation matters–not just for their own survival, but for the health of the entire ecosystem.

Proactive conservation work matters just as much as crisis response.

Teachers, thank you for the meaningful work you do every day.

On World Teachers’ Day, we invite you to bring your students’ learning beyond the classroom with an Endangered Wolf Center education program.

Our updated offerings include on-site field trips, classroom and assembly outreach, virtual visits, and educational event booths. Programs are available individually or as multi-visit bundles and connect to STEM, English Language Arts, and Social Emotional Learning standards.

Whether your students are learning about habitats, animal behavior, ecosystem interdependence, or the conservation of endangered species, we can help create an engaging experience that they’ll take with them as they become the future for our planet..
