Save Wolf Mountain Sanctuary



Save Wolf Mountain Sanctuary

Target: Dena Smith, Director Land Use Services Department

Wolf Mountain Sanctuary rescues wolves and fosters them in a sanctuary in Southern California, as well as educating visitors about the plight of this threatened species. However, local officials recently shut down Wolf Mountain Sanctuary and demanded that the sanctuary repermit, a process this nonprofit organization cannot afford.
Even though Wolf Mountain Sanctuary complied with all regulations and held an Exhibitor License since 1987, the County of San Bernardino will not allow the organization to continue its work until it files paperwork to receive a new Exhibitor License. The sanctuary does not have the resources to repeatedly file paperwork and pay the accompanying exorbitant fees. And it shouldn't have to.
The work of Wolf Mountain Sanctuary is too valuable and unique to be abandoned with so little cause. Urge the County of San Bernardino to allow them to continue protecting wolves from extinction.

- I have made many visits to Wolf Mountain Sanctuary over the last 11 years. I have been volunteering at Wolf Mountain Sanctuary for the last 2 years. I know the wolves there are loved and cared for. I have personally developed a bond with the wolves there and a close bond with one of the wolves in particular. If anything bad were to happen to her or any of the other wolves there, I don't think I could take it!
Its already bad enough what the government is doing to wild wolves already! Now it seems they want to target captive wolves for exploition and cruelty aswell! This madness needs to stop and both wild and captive wolves need to be protected!
I personally feel that Wolf Mountain Sanctuary is being harassed by county and government officials more than likely because if they can shut down the sanctuary permanently, they can take over the land for who knows what? They care nothing about the wolves or the people who love and care deeply for the wolves that they hurt!
I also know that Wolf Mountain Sanctuary has fallen on hard times and has been struggling due to a drastic drop in donations and sponsers since the economic crash. I think to help save Wolf Mountain Sanctuary, we should all send whatever donations we can to them no matter how big or small it is. Anything we all can send to them will help. I hope Wolf Mountain Sanctuary will be saved and the wolves there will be saved! Please save Wolf Mountain Sanctuary!
