Wolf Sanctuary

On November 22, 2022, the 5th Grade and I went to the Wolf Conservation Center in Salem, New York. We got to see some of the 32 wolves living there. We saw Alawa & Nikai, the ambassador wolves. We learned about wolves & their habitat. We discovered that they can hear sounds that are 10 miles away! They can smell things up to 3 miles! And their paws are webbed, which allows them to swim well. They can run up to 35 miles per hour. Wolves eat deer, moose, bison, etc. A wolf consumes around 8 to 10 lbs of food per week. They weigh 80 to 120 lbs. We had lots of fun at the Wolf Conservation Center and learned tons of intriguing things.
