Wolf Conservation Through Art

The intricate social order of the wolf pack is as unique and caring an environment as one will find in nature. A strong male and female form the nucleus of this family. As with any possible courtships, first impressions are everything.

Very few species have undergone the bad rap in public perception, as has the wild wolves. For decades this feared and often hunted creature has disappeared in many areas of Canada and the US were they had roomed freely for centuries. Today many conservation efforts and public awareness has helped reintroduce wolf packs into many state and national parks across the US and Canada. Montana with one of the largest wolf populations in the US has seen an increase of eight percent in 2010. This increase while significant only brings the total to only two hundred and twenty mating pairs in the state and only seven hundred and fifty across the mid west.

The biggest champions of increasing the wolf population back into many areas are the Western Wildlife Conservancy (WWC) and the Defenders of Wildlife Organization (DWO). These wolf conservation groups through fund raising, lobbying and public awareness have helped decrease hunting and poisoning of this creature and support laws protecting this endangered animal. It is the ultimate goal of both these organizations to protect the species as well as the habit in which it they roam.

Many people today are also learning about the life of the wolf through the arts. The renewed interest in wolf conversation has inspired many nature artist and sculptors to take a second look at this wonderful animal and the life it lives. Wildlife artist and photographer William Ervin has taken and published hundreds of photographs of this animal. His award winning art and the positive spin he has put on these animals has made millions of people aware of the plight of this animal..

Recently wildlife sculptor Kitty Cantrell introduced "Devotion". A wolf statue that depicts a wolf couple in a loving and tender moment in time. This wolf statue and many others depict the wolf as a loving, caring and noble animal. A big contrast as how the world portrayed this animal only a few years earlier.

While many organizations lobby Washington to protect the wolf and its natural habitat. It has been through photography, fine art, posters of wolves and wolf statues that has changed the perception of the wolf in US. Showing the wolf in a positive light has helped the survival of these creatures and has helped bring them back from the brink of total extinction in the US.

About the Author

Spending my childhood in the Pacific Northwest, where hiking in the Deshutes National Forest was a regular family ritual. My desire to share this admiration for the outdoors was strong. I decide to share my talent through art. While art is not my primary profession I enjoy it immensely. I have strong passion for wildlife and have created a number of wolf statues mainly for my family and friends. I am currently creating a series of wolf statues that I hope to enter in art shows this year. I am also a member of the DWO and volunteer regularly in fund raising events.
