Shy Wolf Santuary



I wanted to write about my volunteering experience. For this class I have decided to volunteer at Shy Wolf Sanctuary. It's an animal refuge in Naples that has rescued wolves, wolf-dogs, panthers, and foxes. I have already learned a lot about all of these animals just from the 2 times I have volunteered there. I'm already seeing big differences between my dogs and these wolves. Wolves do things in order to survive, while dogs don't really have to worry about survival so much as pleasing their owners. I've also learned that if it looks like the wolf has a curve in the tail, then it's a wolf hybrid. As I volunteer more, I hope to learn more about their behaviors. This is the first time I've ever seen a wolf and they are majestic animals. In the book "A Land Remembered" wolves were involved in it, not always in the best way. They usually chased the cows but that's because, like I said, they are driven by their instinct to survive. But the people in the book had respect for them, as do I.
