Common Questions About CWC Tours

Learn about our ambassador packs and wolf behavior as you watch staff give out enrichment - which could be food, substrate, scents, etc. - to our two wolf packs to get the wolves more active and expressing natural behaviors during this tour.

Available Friday through Monday at select times, you’ll receive an educational presentation on the history of wolf conservation in North America during a guided public tour of our two ambassador wolf packs.

Any type of tour guests choose to participate in, unless explicitly mentioned, will be roughly 1 hour long. We advise tour guests to bring water, hats and sunscreen.

Service animals are not allowed access to the Conservation Center because their presence would fundamentally alter the programs we offer. The wild wolves who are our ambassadors, and the primary focus of our public programs, would be distracted by the presence of service dogs and at risk for potential exposure to zoonotic diseases.

No, we do not allow any direct interaction with our wolves. Some of our wolves could be released into the wild, and even if they can’t, they are kept as wild as possible, so forcing them to interact with people could cause them stress, and would be exploitative.

Private tours involve you and your group of up to 6 people total with a more personalized experience, and are available at select times on weekdays. Public tours are open to up to 30 people, and are available Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

The discounts we offer come as a membership perk for our members. Explore our membership rewards here! We also offer a discount to those staying at KQ Ranch Resort.

The tour consists of two viewing areas where you have the option to sit or stand while observing our ambassador wolves. In between the viewing areas, the path of the tour is roughly 60 yards of total walking. Note that the total walking distance will be broken down into 3 segments split by the time spent at each viewing area.

The tour route is an unpaved dirt path that can be uneven due to rain and water runoff. Previous guests have successfully used crutches, wheelchairs and other mobility aids. However, we do recommend monitoring the weather around the time of your visit for any heavy rain or snow. If a member of your party has accessibility concerns and your tour is scheduled after a storm, we encourage you to call our offices to receive an updated report.
