One of the ways the sanctuary can remain non profit is its ADOPT A WOLF program. When we visited the sanctuary the first time, we took the Full Moon Tour. That meant on a Saturday night mid month when the moon was full, volunteers stood at the fenced in areas at the wolf packs closest to the parking area, ready to answer questions and talk about the wolves--gray wolves, timber wolves and hybrids. After that visit, I adopted Yellow Feather and I ordered an adoption packet for my husband for his birthday for Dakota. I was so fascinated by the wolves that we went back for a private two hour tour a few weeks later. On that tour, I particularly focused on Thor, a wolf with cataracts. His story is here at my blog: Adaptation Is The Greatest Gift (Thor) . After that visit, I symbolically adopted him. I wanted to be a part of this special place and help preserve the sanctuary and the wolves.

The donation for a symbolic adoption at the wolf sanctuary is $40.00. You can adopt a wolf or send a packet to a loved one or friend as a gift. The kit you will receive includes a photo of your wolf, an adoption certificate, a biography about your wolf and a wolf information sheet.
