Collection: Moira Schein

Moira is Mission: Wolf's current Animal Caretaker- She arrived at Mission: Wolf in summer 2023, elated to return to her home state of Colorado. Moira graduated from the University of California Berkeley in 2021 with a degree in biology, and decided to pursue her passion for wolves. This led her to work with the California Wolf Center, learning about wild wolf biology and captive wolf husbandry.

Over the past 5 years Moira has also cared for her own two Wolfdogs, Faelen and Maeve, and created her organization “Running with Wolfdogs” to offer public education and wolf programs. Both Faelen and Maeve made the journey to Mission: Wolf with their “mom,” and all three are thriving at the refuge together. Moira gratefully accepted the role of Animal Caretaker at Mission: Wolf in Fall 2023, and is truly living her dream.

When she’s not busy preparing wolf meals or thinking up fun enrichment ideas, Moira loves hiking with her two wolfdogs, working on social media, dirt biking, or taking photographs of the amazing animals around her.
