Guardians of the Wild

Today we stand at an historic crossroads. The demand for protection of apex predators,
public engagement and wildlife education has never been greater. Help us to build a world class conservation and education center for wolves and California's native predators.

A new chapter for the California Wolf Center

For nearly fifty years, the California Wolf Center has worked to restore wolves to the Wild and foster understanding of the predators that shape healthy ecosystems.

Today, as wolves return to California’s landscapes, the challenges they face are growing - development, climate change and human-wildlife conflict threaten their future.

Guardians of the Wild is our response: a bold capital campaign to protect apex predators, inspire understanding, and secure a future where people and wildlife thrive together.

An innovative vision:
A place where Conservation comes to life

We are building a visionary new facility that will dramatically expand our impact: educating the public, caring for wildlife and redefining coexistence.

This facility will include:

  • A state-of-the-art Visitor & Education Center

  • Expansive natural habitats for wolves

  • World class medical facilities

  • Immersive native habitats

  • Introduction of Californian native apex predators

Lay the Groundwork

Join a dedicated group of supporters helping lay the groundwork for our new home.  Before we can build, we must secure permits, complete environmental studies, and prepare the land. Gifts of any size directly support this critical first phase.  Every contribution moves us one step closer to a permanent home for the wolves and a place for the public to come together where future generations discover what it truly means to be stewards of the wild. 

Leadership Giving:
