International Wolf Center has 6 adult wolves. There are large windows to view them through. Information available on "who they are" & their stories. Film in the theatre & programs in the ampitheatre at different times. They have an area under construction during 2009, so things are a bit tighter than they normally are we were told. They are receptive to groups of adults or schools.
Highly recommend if you are in the area.

Ely Minnesota is a launching pad to the vast boreal forest wilderness know as the Boundary Waters Canoe area and Quetico National Park. The two of these parks encompass millions of square miles of forest and thousands of lakes. The majority of these lakes are only accessible by canoe.
