Company info

The Tsitsikamma Wolf Sanctuary, non-profit company, was established in 2001. The oldest and first wolf sanctuary in South Africa. We are a safe-haven for surrendered wolves and high-content wolf dogs. We are a non-breeding and non-touch facility. Wolves are wild animals therefore we do not do any interactions inside any of the enclosures.
