Children's Wolf Keeper Day at The UK Wolf Conservation Trust
Come dressed to get mucky and see what the wolves and their keepers get up to during the day. Take over the job of Wolf Keeper looking after the wolves. Don't be fooled - it's hard work but lots of fun!
Please note there is no wolf contact at this event.
Spaces are limited to make the day really special, so please book early.
