Project Overview

General Overview :

Project THE WOLF IS GOOD, also affectionately known as Project TWIG, is a government-funded organization dedicated to the preservation of wolves and wolf populations throughout Canada. Its headquarters and educational facility is house on the island of Xanctsu - an island which has been the site of preference for 85% of the research done, thanks to its supreme conditions for both relocated and native wolves.

Recently, the WEO (World Environment Organization) joined Project TWIG's cause. Together, they have been working to develop public awareness and related issues with programs that educate, awake and motivate local as well as national residents, which may very well be the key for preserving wolves and their habitats.

Benefits and Advantages :

Though the wolf population in Canada is at a stable state in comparison to other countries, there are still parts of Canada that were once booming with this natural predator but are now quieted and deprived of the song of the wolf.

In hopes of re-establishing a healthy population in certain sectors, it was decided that wolves would be relocated from areas where the population rate was too high, to areas where the numbers were suffering. However, in order to do this, researchers needed the ability to monitor their progress at a number of sites. Not only would they then be able to learn what would work and what wouldn't through the relocation process, but they would also be able to conduct other research that would greatly benefit the well-being of this amazing animal.

Xanctsu Island was a perfect candidate for one of five primary sites. It has been a self-sustaining community for dogsledders since the early 1900s, and offers acres upon acres of mountains, rolling timberland, and meadows and streams. Numbers for wolves were low but stable, too. And because it is an island, controlling the project would be easy. So it was selected as the headquarters.

Future Goals :

Neither WEO or Project TWIG have released their upcoming plans for next year. Please check back soon for further updates.
