No species more clearly symbolizes America's changing view of wildlife than the gray wolf. Having been virtually eliminated in the lower 48 states by 1965, most people now recognize the error of persecuting wolves and understand the value of large predators in suitable habitats for the health and proper functioning of an ecosystem.



Creator, open our hearts to peace and healing between all people.

Creator, open our hearts to provide and protect for all children of the earth.

Creator, open our hearts to respect for the earth, and all the gifts of the earth.

Creator, open our hearts to end exclusion, violence, and fear among all.

Thank you for the gifts of this day and every day.


When all the trees have been cut down, when all the animals have been hunted, when all the waters are polluted, when all the air is unsafe to breathe, only then will you discover you cannot eat money.


WOLF'S HEART LODGE welcomes you to join us in Celebration of all Creator has gifted to us. To drum and chant and share our this Earth Walk. To work for the People and the Land. Call Sky Dancer at 727/343-4638 for details.


The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.

The relationship between wolves and humans is long and complex. Although ancient wolves are the ancestors of today's domesticated dogs, over time wolves have come to be seen as violent predators. In the United States, changing laws over the past 80 years demonstrate the wide range of opinions about wolves. Ranchers, environmentalists, residents, and government officials have been involved in ongoing disputes over the question of whether and where wolves should be allowed to roam.

One must understand the wolf in the wild to truly appreciate his inherit right to exist. In their own world, wolves can maybe teach us to see their species in a new light. Have we waited until it is too late to learn to understand this mysterious yet highly controversial animal and give them the acceptance they deserve? Do we dare take a new look at the wolf, to see what is really behind that mask of the myths formed from our own fear of the wilderness, a world yet untamed?

Wolves have a society.

They have a language, rituals, rules and rites of passage.

They have a 45 million year-old culture.

They are NOT a "renewable resource".

They are a Nation of Beings... who share this planet with us.

Their intelligence is second only to humans

... and I often find that questionable.

Human Beings are NOT the only species on this planet...

they just behave as if they are.
