Nationwide Research Survey
Your Voice Shapes the Future of Wolves
A nationwide survey exploring how people think, feel, and connect with wolves in the wild. Every perspective matters — including yours.
Why it matters
Wolves are at a crossroads. So is the conversation.
Wolf populations across North America are shaped not just by biology, but by public opinion, policy, and the stories we tell about them.
The Wolf Listener Survey gathers perspectives from all walks of life — ranchers, hikers, scientists, and curious minds — to build a clearer picture of how people relate to wolves and what they want for their future.
Your answers contribute to research that informs wildlife management decisions at the local, state, and federal level.
How it works
Three steps. Ten minutes. Real impact.

Voices from the field
I've spent thirty years ranching in wolf country. This was the first survey that actually asked what I thought — not just what I feared.
As a field ecologist, I'm constantly surprised by how nuanced public opinion on wolves really is. This research captures that complexity.
