Nature Preserves, Julian
Fodor's Review:
One of the few places in North America where you can get an up-close view of the gray wolves that once roamed much of the continent lies just outside Julian. The California Wolf Center, which is dedicated to the preservation of the endangered North American gray wolf and participates in breeding programs, houses several captive packs, including some rare Mexican grays, a subspecies of the North American gray wolf that came within seven individuals of extinction in the 1970s. The animals are kept secluded from public view in 3-acre pens, but some may be seen by visitors during weekly educational tours. Private tours are by appointment.
