Founded in 2013 by Anjali Ranadive, Women for Wolves began as a personal healing journey that evolved into a mission. After facing depression and self-harm, Anjali found purpose in rescuing wolves and wolf-dogs — animals often feared or misunderstood. In saving them, she discovered they had saved her. That connection sparked a movement rooted in compassion, coexistence, and ecological balance.

Over the past decade, Women for Wolves has grown into a sanctuary, an advocacy organization, and a leadership space for women in conservation. We bring together educators, Indigenous knowledge holders, scientists, artists, activists, and sanctuary professionals to protect wolves, elevate environmental awareness, and build ethical relationships between people and wildlife.

Our impact includes:
- Rescuing and rehabilitating 300+ animals, offering lifelong sanctuary to wolf-dogs
- Empowering 60+ women to lead in conservation and wildlife education
- Delivering 40+ youth programs on coexistence, rewilding, and environmental stewardship
- Reaching 10M+ people through education, advocacy, and storytelling
- Supporting 30+ policy initiatives that strengthen wolf protections and ecosystem health

Our work spans wolf-dog rescue, wild wolf advocacy, Indigenous partnerships, coexistence programs, women’s empowerment initiatives, youth education, and rewilding projects. We believe protecting apex species restores ecosystems — and uplifting women restores communities.

At Women for Wolves, conservation is not just science; it is healing, leadership, and connection. We envision a world where wolves roam freely, women lead with courage, and humanity learns to coexist with nature rather than control it.

Together, we are the voice for the voiceless.
Together, we are Women for Wolves.
