Tuesday, July 7, 2026 from 1-1:45pm in the Kingsley Room, join us for a lecture about wolf conservation.
In the late 20th century, Mexican gray wolves and red wolves were declared to be extinct in the wild. Through intensive efforts, such as breeding programs and wild releases, these wolves have resumed their rightful places on the wild landscape. Join the Wolf Conservation Center to learn more about the history of wolves in North America, and the work being done to restore them to the landscape through wolf pup reintroduction programs.
The Wolf Conservation Center, located in South Salem, NY and founded in 1999, is one of the world’s leading wolf conservation facilities, participating in the recovery programs of the Mexican Gray Wolves and Red Wolves, while educating tens of thousands of guests each year on Wolves and their Keystone role, as well as broader topics of wildlife coexistence, conservation, and community action.
Like all Southbury Public Library programs, this program is free to attend and open to anyone regardless of town of residency. This program is sponsored by the Charles H. and Ella Emery Rutledge Fund. Registration is required. Please visit the link below for more information and to register.
