Docents are ambassadors who lead and present educational tours, programs and evening events that take place both on-site and around the bi-state are. These activities take place any day or evening, including weekends. The Endangered Wolf Center is currently recruiting invdividuals around the area to go through our Docent training class and become certified to lead our on-site educational programming.

This provides great opportunities for becoming an educational ambassador not only for the wolf, but for conservation. You will also be joining a wonderful pack of volunteers and staff at the Endangered Wolf Center!

Docent training will be scheduled by the Special Programs Coordinator, Kelsey Rumley, as needed.

Please email Kelsey at krumley@endangeredwolfcenter.org with questions or further detail.

About Endangered Wolf Center

Location:

6750 Tyson Valley Rd., Eureka, MO 63025, US

Mission Statement

To preserve and protect Mexican wolves, red wolves and other wild canid species, with purpose and passion, through carefully managed breeding, reintroduction and inspiring education programs.

Description

The Endangered Wolf Center, founded by Marlin and Carol Perkins in 1971, participates in the managed recovery programs for the red wolf and Mexican wolf directed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The long-range goal of these programs is to increase the population and return these endangered wolves to the wild. We also are home to the swift fox, maned wolf and African painted dog.

Volunteer positions at the Endangered Wolf Center give participants the opportunity to learn about canids and the natural world. Your service to the wolf and other endangered canids helps to ensure the survival of these misunderstood members of the dog family.

No volunteer opportunities involve direct contact with our canids.

Junior Volunteers are between the ages of 14-17 and our full-time volunteers have to be at least 18 years of age.
