Join our Wildlife Career Day and meet local biologists and others who work with wildlife. You’ll get a special behind-the-scenes tour to learn more about our wolves and even create an enrichment activity for our wolves to try! Wrap up your day by watching our wolves be fed their weekly meal at our “What’s for Dinner?” program.

Program includes moderate indoor and outdoor activities in variable weather. Participants under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult
