Holiday Howls At The Wolf Conservation Center Promise A 'Wild' Time

SOUTH SALEM, NY — If crowded shopping malls and end-of-year office parties have you ready to howl at the moon, then we may have a perfect way to blow off some steam.

The Wolf Conservation Center announced that "Holiday Howls" will be offered on a few special days during the month of December.

Guests will learn about the mythology, biology and ecology of wolf familes and find out why winter is such a wonderful time for North American wolf packs. Attendees will also have the chance to watch gray wolves Alawa and Nikai tear into wolf-themed presents.

It is also possible that the WCC's critically endangered red wolves and Mexican gray wolves will make special holiday cameos.
