Wolves Demystified: The True Nature of North America’s Most Controversial Predator

Wolves have been plagued by myth and misinformation for centuries. This has led to conservation issues across the globe, but it has also led to wolves being improperly handled as household pets. At the Wolf Sanctuary of Pennsylvania, gray wolves and wolf-dogs are given back their dignity. The sanctuary, located in Lititz, PA, has been rescuing these mysterious and misunderstood creatures since 1980. Currently the sanctuary is home to 55 gray wolves and wolf-dogs. Through guided tours they also seek to dispel some of the common myths about wolves and provide a more accurate and respectful image of this keystone species. Learn more about the Wolves of Speedwell and about the true nature of the gray wolf in “Wolves Demystified”.
