Thank you.
The Shadowland Foundation Pack - "Students were enthralled and deeply moved by the gentleness, beauty and intelligence of the wolves (wolf-hybrids). Being able to interact with the wolves (wolf-hybrids) was a unique and awesome experience for our students."
- Sheri Werner
Director, Foundations School Community - "When I bid on a silent auction item for Shadowland Foundation I knew it would be an experience that would fuel my heart. When I actually WON the bid I cried. Sharing the event with my brother and friends was beyond amazing. Paul and Colette educated us on the current situation wolves are now facing and how we can make a difference."
Thank you Paul and Colette.
- Barbara Fenley - "Magical experiences don't happen every day. Having your wolves (wolf-hybrids) come to my home was not only magical, but informative, fun and exciting. You make the whole experience something that everyone at all ages can enjoy. From learning about how wolves live in the wild to getting to interact with them in a safe and intimate way, it is a something we will all treasure as a precious memory."
- John Livesay - "I Thank you sooooo much! You guys have been the talk of the town! Especially how gentle Takoda was with the baby! We couldn't get over how he took to the baby! We loved your presentation."

Childrens' Howls
- The following are letters and drawings of our wolf-hybrids that we have received from children. We typed what the child wrote, typos and all, in the Left column for screen readersA screen reader is a software application that attempts to identify and interpret what is being displayed on the screen (or, more accurately, sent to standard output, whether a video monitor is present or not)., unfortunately some things, small drawings for example, could not be typed. The Middle (text) and Right (drawings) columns are the scanned (images) original documents, click on them to enlarge the image, they will open in a separate window.

Dear Colette and Paul,
"Thank you for coming to our school (F.S.C.) and teaching us about wolves. I did not know that if you take a wolf from its original habitat, all the Elk would eat all of the vagitation in that area and ruin the wild life. I think my favorite part was petting Shadow, Allie, and Takota."
From, Annika Group3.
