The 'Mane' Attraction...
Our boys have been with us a week and half now and are settling really well!
Did you know that maned wolves are neither a true wolf, or as some people think, a fox? Genetic studies show that in fact they are a distinct species in their own right.
Although they are the tallest of the wild canids (standing around 107cm at shoulder height), their closest relative is actually one of the smallest - the bush dog!
Who can't wait to come and spot them when we re-open?

We've just added the maned wolves to our care packages too! Whilst we are closed for lockdown, you can still support us! www.hemsleyconservationcentre.com/carepackages
