Shadowland Foundation

Shadowland Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to wolf and wolfdog education, advocacy, and the extraordinary connection between wolves and humans.

Founded by Paul and Colette “Wolfmom” Pondella, Shadowland has been educating people about wolves since 2009 with one guiding principle: EDUCATE NOT ERADICATE.

Through educational programs and personal encounters with our pack, we challenge misconceptions about wolves and help people understand their vital role in our world. Our wolves have also taught us profound lessons about family, communication, resilience, unconditional love, and our relationship with the natural world.

Shadowland Foundation is also the home behind Wolf Wisdom Healing. 

EDUCATE NOT ERADICATE.

“You are not recovering from something. You are recovering yourself.”
