Wolf Week: A Howlin' Good Fall Break at Woodlands Nature Station

September 27, 2019 | Staff Report

The Friends of Land Between the Lakes invites you to bring the family to Woodlands Nature Station during fall break for Wolf Week, 10 am - 5 pm, October 5 - 11, 2019, inside Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, 3146 Silver Trail Road, Cadiz, Kentucky, 42211. Admission is $5 for ages 13 and up, $3 for ages 5 – 12 and free for ages 4 and under.

Come visit our resident endangered red wolves and join their "pack" of wolf admirers. Attend special wolf programs offered each day, join the red wolves for feeding time daily at 2:30 pm, become a werewolf and more. Discover why these cunning canines have inspired awe in people for generations.

Woodlands Nature Station will be naming the resident female red wolf to go along with the male wolf that is already named, and you get to help! Join us during Wolf Week or on Facebook @woodlandsnaturestation to provide appropriate and educational name suggestions from September 30 - October 6, 2019, and then again to vote on the final names from October 7-12, 2019, with the winning name being announced during the Nature Station's Woolly Bear Festival on October 13, 2019.
