The Endangered Wolf Center is a non-profit environmental organization dedicated to the conservation of wild canids, particularly Mexican wolves and American red wolves, through managed breeding, reintroduction efforts, research, and educational programs. Based in Eureka, Missouri, the center operates within the environmental services sector and holds certification from the Association of Zoos & Aquariums as part of its conservation mission. Its work aims to foster coexistence between wolves and humans by maintaining programs that support wild canid populations and their native habitats, while using public education to inform and inspire stakeholders. The organization emphasizes a long-standing role in American wolf conservation, with a history dating to its founding in 1971 by Marlin Perkins and his wife, and ongoing leadership development reflected in recent executive appointments. In addition to its core conservation activities, the center has engaged in partnerships and collaborations, such as a recent initiative with Running Wild Media to highlight the lifecycle of a litter born under managed care and released into the wild.
