Wildlife Science Center Wolves Moving to Como Park Zoo

Stacy, MN September 10, 2021 – On September 15, 2021, the Wildlife Science Center will continue our long-term partnership with Como Park Zoo by donating two wolves to their zoo. These two beautiful male wolves will be on exhibit at the Como Park Zoo as ambassadors of their species. The wolves will provide zoo visitors with an opportunity to learn about this majestic species and how we can learn to co-exist with them. Wolves are an important member of our ecosystem in Minnesota, and they often are misunderstood. The Wildlife Science Center continues to share their unique knowledge, research and conservation efforts with their community partners such as the Como Park Zoo.

The last two wolves donated by WSC lived full lives well into their teens and educated thousands of people, young and old. WSC is thrilled to be able to provide these spectacular ambassadors with the thousands of visitors to Como Park Zoo This gift to Como Park Zoo aligns with the mission of the Wildlife Science Center. To serve as an educational resource for all ages; by: providing exposure to wild animals and the body of knowledge generated for their conservation; to advance understanding of wild animal biology through long-term, humane scientific studies on captive populations, thus contributing to technical training for wildlife agencies, educational institutions and conservation agencies.

Wolves will arrive at Como September 15, 2021 at 9:30 am
