Located in the Canadian forest, a three-hour drive from Toronto, visitors can discover grey wolves at the privately-owned 100,000 acre sustainable Haliburton Forest & Wildlife Reserve.
As an apex predator, wolves serve to keep the ecosystem in balance, but over the years hunting and environmental impacts on their habitat have threatened this majestic animal.
The Wolf Centre at Haliburton
The decline of wolf populations triggered the creation of the Wolf Centre at Haliburton.
It aims to revive wolf pack numbers whilst educating locals and tourists alike about the importance of wolves within Ontario's ecology and to shift perceptions.
A resident wolf pack has lived in a seven acre enclosure within Haliburton Forest since 1993 and visitors may view the wolves from the Wolf Centre through one-way glass.
The centre also contains exhibits which tell the story of wolves and separates fact from fiction. Visitors have the chance to hear a wolf pack howl on guided walks during the summer months.
