Parc Alpha, Wolf sanctuary in Saint-Martin-Vésubie, France.
Located between 1500 and 1800 meters in altitude, Parc Alpha maintains three separate wolf packs in extensive natural habitats within the Mercantour National Park.
The park's educational displays illustrate the complex relationship between wolves and local shepherds through generations in the French Alps mountain communities.
Through specially designed observation posts, visitors learn about pack dynamics, social hierarchies, and behavioral patterns of the Erps, Pelago, and Boreon wolf groups.
The facility operates year-round with different seasonal schedules, offering guided tours at 14 euros per person and maintaining specific feeding demonstration times.
Visitors can participate in the Keeper for a Day program, working alongside professional caretakers to prepare food and monitor wolf behavior patterns.
