Wild and Free

Saint Francis Wolf Sanctuary is a nonprofit registered charity in Montgomery Texas, run by volunteers, created to provide a permanent home where wild & captive born wolves and wolf-dogs may live out the rest of their natural lives safely and comfortably with loving care and attention. These are non-releasable animals that have suffered much and deserve a stable and loving environment. 

Our focus is educating the public about wolves, both captive and those still in the wild, and the complexities of wolf-dog ownership.

So, come on in, get comfortable and stay awhile! Read Grandmother Timbre's Welcome first.

Meet each of the wolves by reading their stories, viewing their pictures and watching their videos. They have much to share and teach and we have much to learn from them!

Also, find out how you can become a sponsor to the wolves and even visit them in person!

The funds raised this year will enable us to install cooling fans into a couple more of the wolves' log homes, build another enclosure so we can take in more wolves, and to continue to provide superior veterinary care, maintain the enclosures and of course Feed the Wolves!

The love and caring for the wolves comes free from all of our wonderful volunteers!

Hurricane IKE Update

Thank you ALL who have called or emailed the Sanctuary to check on the wolves, Jean and the Volunteers! Everyone made it through the horrific storm with minimal damage and ALL the wolves are OK and doing well!

There was some minor tree damage due to the winds, but thanks to the help of Crystal and her Army Buddies along with many other volunteers and the ever helpful landscaping crew, the fallen trees and branches were cut & cleaned up.

Animal PhotoWhile the wolves safely rode the storm out with Jean; There were many pets and stray animals that did not fair as well.

Animal PhotoPlease take a minute to visit the SPCA or the Humane Society websites and do what you can to help feed, adopt or foster the many animals that are in need in these shelters. If you have lost an animal during the storm, there are links to help you find them.

 

We are often asked "what just one person can do to help save the Wolf Population of North America?"

There are many organizations, including ours that specialize in education, rescue, and sheltering Wolves and Wolf-Dogs. Do some research and get involved!

It only takes ONE PERSON at a time to make a difference!
