Controversy about wolves often arises as the advance of
civilization further encroaches into wild lands, creating an ever-shrinking
habitat for the wolves. Staff of the International Wolf Center sees accurate
and objective education about the wolves, their place as predators in the
ecosystem, and the need for them to reclaim at least a small portion of their
former habitat as keys to making informed decisions about the real or perceived
issues surrounding the wolves, their interaction with human civilization, and
the survival of the species.
