A 3-acre sustainably run rescue is nestled in Westcliffe where the public can learn why wolves and wolf-dog crosses do not make good pets but are essential for a healthy ecosystem. Mission: Wolf provides a sanctuary for rescued wolves — and horses — and teaches the community about these compelling creatures, from their behavior to body language and more. The organization also provides face-to-face interactions with the animals, if circumstances allow. To learn more and to donate to this critical cause, visit missionwolf.org.
