DENVER - May 8, 2007 - The Dogs Days of Summer are heating up at The Wildlife Experience with exhibits, movies and plenty of “pawsome” programs about man’s best friend. This summer The Wildlife Experience is featuring two new exhibits: Wolf to Woof: The Story of Dogs and Paws & Reflect: Art of Canines as well as the showing of Wolves in the Extreme Screen Theater.

Wolf to Woof: The Story of Dogs, June 2 through October 7, 2007, explores the history, biology and development of dogs and the role of dogs in human societies. Paws & Reflect: Art of Canines, July 14 through October 14, 2007, features artwork in acrylic, mixed media, oil, pencil, watercolor, gouache, scratchboard and bronze sculptures celebrating the canine. Wolves, showing now through August 31, gives audiences a look into the reclusive lives of wolves, their pack behavior and an opportune glance back at the plight of the gray wolves struggle to recover from near extinction.

In addition to exhibits, visitors will also be treated to “paw”-some activities such as:
  • Dog Days with My Best Friend – entries will be displayed in the Habitat Hallway and a Weekly Woof will be featured on our website at thewildlifeexperience.org
  • Live Wolves presentation – July 7
  • Live Cheetah presentation – July 21
  • Dog Day Expo – August 4
  • Daily stories about dogs and wolves
  • Police Canine Unit visits and demonstrations
  • Pet adoption opportunities & artist appearances
Dog Days of Summer begins at The Wildlife Experience on May 24 and lasts through August 31. As an additional benefit for the Dog Days of Summer promotion, those who join The Wildlife Experience as a member or renew their existing membership will receive a free plush wolf gift, while supplies last.
