The pack holding area vestibule is being replaced to make it more secure for adult wolf transfer. Construction began today, with the wolves intently watching the contractor. A special thanks to Pat and Rene' Woodworth for funding this vestibule project. It is critical that the wolf care program has facilities to isolate individual wolves for medical care or behavioral reasons. This vestibule will replace a 5 foot fence of thin gauge chain link with an 8 foot heavy gauge chain link that also has a 2 foot 45 degree overhang at the top of the fence. This is much more secure for adult wolves who can climb or jump a 5 foot fence with ease.
