Enjoy these treats from Wolf Hollow in Ipswich!  Adult XL sweatshirt, water canteen, wolf stuffie, and bumper stickers.

Wolf Hollow, aka the North American Wolf Foundation, is a 501(c)3 non-profit wolf sanctuary and educational facility proudly staffed primarily by volunteers and supported solely by donations, adoptions, and proceeds from admission and gift shop sales. Since our founding in 1988, our mission has maintained a focus on the preservation of the wolf in the wild through education and exposure.

Our visitors are given a unique opportunity to meet our resident gray wolves while enjoying an enlightening one-hour educational presentation, most engaging for ages 5 to 105. During this time visitors will observe the wolves interacting with their pack-mates at close range.

Despite what you may hear, North American gray wolves are still very much a threatened species. In an effort to provide the public the necessary tools to help fight for their protection, Wolf Hollow seeks to:

Raise awareness regarding the important role the wolf plays as a keystone species in promoting a healthy ecosystem
Provide examples of how the pack co-exist as a family group, very similar to humans
Display the dynamics and hierarchy amongst the pack through observable behavior cues
Discuss the biology of the wolf, as well as the evolution/domestication of modern dogs
Provide a glimpse into the history of man's interaction with wolves and the challenges we face at present to protect the wolf as a species
 

By the end of your visit we hope you will have gained an understanding of your own responsibility toward the sustainability of a diverse and healthy ecosystem and how you can help make an impact.
