THEN COME AND TAKE A TREK ON THE WILD SIDE!

EXPERIENCE A WOLF ADVENTURE; AND LEARN A WILD WISDOM!

Wolf Echo Valleys A Wolf Adventure is a licensed educational outreach facility and eco lodge, located within a beautiful pristine Provincial forest system in Saskatchewan, and is home not only to an amazing diverse eco system, but some bottle raised permanent captive wolf ambassadors. We are also proudly a member of the Wildlife Rehabilitation Society of Saskatchewan www.wrsos.org

WEV fosters, nurtures and promotes a healthy respect of wildlife and surrounding habitat. We strive to provide a unique, one of a kind up close and personal experience with wolves, and provide opportunities to interact with these amazing creatures, as well as be able to get the public out on an interpretive scenic field trip on the lands many trail systems. We believe the only true way to attain an understanding of the importance of conservation, is through education.

WolfEcho Valley targets the youth especially troubled youth, as I have found that children learn to understand themselves more, and gain important tools in life dealings when they learn about their natural environment and residents in a close and personal manner.

Animals and nature truly are healing agents all on their own. I honestly believe that when we focus on fostering healthy youth, we in essence also help create and foster healthy environments.

Wolves remain one of the most highly misunderstood creatures, and the myths abound of just what this feared predator is truly all about. Ask two different people and you usually get two different answers. Through interaction with our captive wild yet socialized ambassadors, they give the public an opportunity to see up close and in person what a wolf is, and what they are not. It is our hopes here at WolfEcho Valley that what people understand, they help to protect.

Though it is A Wolf Adventures firm belief and stance that wild should remain as such, we have also come to recognize the dire need for education, thus through our captive wolves we not only can help to foster and secure future wild wolf populations, but their natural habitat. Without an appreciation and abundance of natural habitat there will be no wild animals left to educate about.

BUT it is more than just being able to see a wolf in captivity, that helps people to get involved with saving them. I don't think people connect with any wild animal, and wish to help protect them in the their natural habitat, unless they also make an emotional connection to the natural wild lands, in which those wild animals reside.

Many people visit zoos every year yet, for many it is simply a social gathering of sorts to get out and simply do something with the family/friends and view animals in cages. Many do not then go out after visiting a typical zoo, and start altering their ways of doing things in a more environmentally friendly way, nor do they race out to help support true conservation programs like WWF (World Wildlife Fund)

If there is no wild lands left, what good does this do? besides keep wild animals in captivity? behind cages void of true natural stimulation, and natural environment.

This is where truly WolfEcho Valley is unique as they help visitors to also *make that connection* and walk away with more than simply seeing a wolf in a cage, which does nothing ultimately to foster a true wild wisdom. Visitors are able to interact on a more intimate level with WEV's ambassador wolves in their natural habitat, and environment not possible in typical zoos. WEV's pristine lands are kept in their natural wild state. This helps foster an appreciation of everything wild, not just wolves. You will not find manipulated nor artificial environments for our captive wild residents.

WolfEcho Valley's A Wolf Adventure, is also a TRUE Conservation minded facility as our own lifestyles reflect truly caring for the natural environment. Our sponsorship certificates are printed up on recycled paper, our cabin is heated using a grain stove, and vehicles run on bio-diesel, we use our own shopping bags (no plastic bags used here) These are but a few examples, (and we are consistently evolving ecologically at the Ranch, in an environmentally friendly manner.) We simply don't just talk about conservation, we put into practice our own advice, and leading through example.

Due to such high costs of providing these experiences, and continual expansion and growth as funds allow, there are various ways you can help us out so we can continue to reach out to those that need us the most. Please click the following to find out how you can help there are many more ways than monetary to do this. thank you.

The deeper we look into nature, the more we recognize that it is full of life, and the more profoundly we know that all life is a secret and that we are united with all life that is in nature. Man can no longer live for himself alone. We realize that all life is valuable, and that we are united to all this life. From this knowledge comes our spiritual relationship to the universe. - Albert Schweitzer
