Take a drive to the Wolf People store to visit the wolf lady, Nancy
Taylor, and see her wolves. Nancy Taylor has lived with wolves
for over twenty years. She is very dedicated to educating the public about wolves and our need to protect them, as they are a vital
part of our planet's ecosystem. Many beautiful items are for sale
at the store and all proceeds are used for the wolves. Currently
25 wolves are cared for by her team. Although her wolves are not
wild animals, they are not domesticated, either; they live outdoors in a compound. Nancy brings two wolves with her to the
visitors center and store each day. You can see the wolves there or
take one of the tours offered. The tours are very enlightening and
you are able to photograph these beautiful, intelligent animals.
