Greetings wolf enthusiasts!
Thanks for your interest in TWIN – we are a non- profit wolf education group, founded in 1989. TWIN is based in Central Wisconsin, and our sole focus is on science-based educational outreach, expressed through the several Wolf Ecology Workshops and Clinics we present each winter.
Our award-winning interactive workshops are presented by instructors that have been instrumental in wolf recovery in the Western Great Lakes, including wolf biologist and author Dick Thiel. The workshops cover the gamut of wolf topics, from the physiology and behavior of the animal to research and monitoring techniques, and to the political vagaries that have governed the management of this iconic species. Each workshop also includes a field trip into wolf territory, where we find and follow wolf tracks, exploring the landscape from the perspective of this keystone predator. New for this year, due to popular demand, we're offering a one-day Wolf Ecology Clinic at DNR-Sandhill Outdoor Skills Center, Beaver Creek Reserve, and Northwoods Rhinelander on Saturday, and for those of you that would like a more focused wolf tracking experience, we're offering an optional full-day Winter Tracking Clinic on Sunday.
We hope to see you at an upcoming workshop. Our 2025 dates are set! Details and information can be found on our Workshops page. In 2025, we will be offering our weekend workshops at Beaver Creek Reserve near Eau Claire, WI, Holiday Acres Resort near Rhinelander, WI and a Sunday tracking clinic starting at the Smrekar Warming House near Black River Falls, WI. Registration will be available shortly since TWIN is currently updating their website. If you'd like us to address your organization at another time and place, contact us at - timberwolfinfonetwork@gmail.com- we can tailor our presentation to your area(s) of interest and time frame.
In the meantime, join our group! For just $12 a year, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that your funds are being used to foster continuing awareness and acceptance of wolves
If you live in Central Wisconsin, keep an eye on our website for TWIN Board Meeting dates and consider attending a meeting – you may have talents that we can use to further our mission!
