WOLF HAVEN INTERNATIONAL
Saturday June 15, 2013
On Saturday, June 15, the North Olympic Group of the Sierra Club will host two presentations about Wolf Haven International programs. A Port Townsend presentation starts at 3 PM at the Community Center, 620 Tyler, in Uptown. The second presentation will be held in Port Angeles at 6:30 PM in the North Olympic Library’s Carver Meeting Room, located on Lauridsen Blvd between Peabody and Chase Streets.
Wolf Haven International, located near Olympia, provides sanctuary for displaced, captive-born wolves, and offers educational programs about wolves and the value of all wildlife.
Wolf Haven International Executive Director Diane Gallegos & Conservation Director Linda Saunders will discuss how this top predator benefits the natural ecosystem of our State, its programs promoting wolf restoration in historic ranges, and about its continuing effort to protect wolves in their native habitat.
Gallegos and Saunders will update the public on the recent return of wolves to Washington after being gone for almost 80 years; the WA State Wolf Conservation & Management Plan used for wolves in the wild; how peaceful co-existence can be achieved with wolves; and the 48 wolves currently living at the Wolf Haven sanctuary.
The public will also hear about other activities of the Sierra Club North Olympic Group — outings, programs, activism.
This is a family friendly event
