Wolf Haven International is a non-profit wolf sanctuary based near Tenino, Washington, founded in 1982. It focuses on rescuing displaced, captive-born wolves and wolfdogs and providing them with lifetime care, including appropriate housing, nutrition, enrichment, and progressive medical treatment. The organization also conducts educational programs about wolves and wildlife, supports wolf restoration in historical ranges, and engages in efforts to protect wild wolves and their habitat. Its work serves primarily private owners, zoos, roadside attractions, and similar places that house wolves or wolf-like animals, offering an alternative to endangerment or neglect by ensuring humane, long-term care. Wolf Haven operates within the nonprofit sector and holds accreditation from the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries and the American Sanctuary Association, reflecting its standing in the sanctuary community and its commitment to welfare standards. Recent developments include participation in community events such as the Wolves & Wine gala, highlighting ongoing outreach and public engagement in its region.
