 The good season is definitely arrived and this means that the park is now open every day except on Mondays. It's somehow strange to see people around so often and the tasks of everyone are changing to provide a better communication service and to take on our first aim, which is overall to popularize our scientific work and the general knowledge about wolves and animal welfare.
To do this the Wolf Science Center is organizing as many guided tours as possible and everyone is actively participating providing different information according to our different profiles and experiences. In the last week the new merchandizing shop was built by the students close to the testing building and now the bets are open: we'll see how much time the shop will resist....
The presence of the strangers is not stopping our normal work and our research, new students arrived and new projects are taking over, which always means a lot of brainstorming to find the better work conditions for us and for the animals, but also a lot of “woodcutting” to build the tools for the new experiments and to make them as strong as possible to resist the weather conditions and our animals enthusiastic approach.
