      <description>Wolf Sanctuary Suffers Major Damage from Storm
Critical Need for Donations
 
Tenino&#45; The recent heavy snowfall and subsequent freezing temperatures caused major damage at Wolf Haven International, a wolf sanctuary located in Tenino, WA, just south of Olympia. 

 
“It’s like a war zone out there,” said Diane Gallegos, executive director of the 30&#45;year old sanctuary. The ice made tree limbs break throughout the 82 acre property, sending wolves scurrying as they dodged falling branches. Nearly every one of the 27 wolf enclosures suffered major fencing damage. “We’re going to need funds immediately to help repair fences and get critical tree work done.”
 
Animal care staff worked tirelessly around the clock throughout the storm. In addition to normal rounds (which includes feeding, giving fresh water, and dispensing  meds as needed), they removed snow from deck pens, cleared fallen debris from enclosures and constantly checked to make sure each of the 50 animals living there was alive and unharmed.  Miraculously, no wolves or people were hurt during the storm.

As a result, Wolf Haven International remains closed until further notice. The sanctuary asks for donations to assist them repair and restore the grounds, particularly on and surrounding the wolves’ living quarters. 
 
Donations can be made by: 
credit card on the website http://store.wolfhaven.org//donate.asp
calling 800.448.WOLF [9653]

   Wolf Haven International

   Tenino, WA 98589
###
 
The mission of Wolf Haven International, a 501 (c) (3) is to conserve and protect wolves and their habitat. Over 160 wolves have been rescued and provided a lifetime home since it was founded in 1982. Wolf Haven Intl. gives sanctuary to displaced, captive&#45;born wolves, promotes wolf restoration in historic ranges and educates the public about the value of all wildlife.</description>
