Welcome to the WSC - Wolf Science Center

At the Wolf Science Center we study the commonalities of wolves, dogs and humans. Our dogs and wolves are hand-raised by scientists and regularly take part in cooperation and cognitive tasks. This ensures that we can work with them in a close and trusting relationship and that the animals are in a healthy state of body and mind. These points lead us to our guiding principles: high quality fundamental research, informing the public about the Wolf - Dog - Human relationship triangle and best possible animal keeping. 

Visit us in the Game Park Ernstbrunn close to Vienna and watch our research activities and how we work with the animals. You can also take part in one of our visitor programs.
