Event Details

Experience the wonderful world of wolves from your own home! In this virtual field trip to the Wolf Conservation center, learn about the history and biology of wolves in North America, and meet the WCC's ambassador wolves Alawa, Zephyr, and Nikai. There's even a chance to potentially see endangered red wolves and Mexican gray wolves!

This program is a part of our 2021 Teen Summer Reading Program: Tails & Tales. While this program is aimed at teens, the information interests all ages and we welcome younger children, families, and adults to virtually join us for this program (select a younger grade or "adult" as appropriate). Find out more about our summer reading program here!

About the Wolf Conservation Center: Located in South Salem, NY, the Wolf Conservation Center (WCC) teaches people about wolves, their relationship to the environment, and the human role in protecting their future. Since 1999, the WCC has been working to protect and preserve wolves in North America through science-based education, advocacy, and participation in the federal recovery and release programs for two critically endangered wolf species - the Mexican gray wolf and red wolf.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Southbury Public Library.
