Salt Lake City, Utah · A WolfHaven sanctuary
The Saltlands Animal Sanctuary
The Salt Lake City, Utah regional sanctuary of WolfHaven LLC, serving the Wasatch Front and the Intermountain West. Focus: animals of every kind — companion animals, farm animals and native wildlife — from the Wasatch Front and the Intermountain West.
I. Why here
The need in Salt Lake City.
Rapid growth along the Wasatch Front, drought and a shrinking Great Salt Lake are putting pressure on animals of every kind, from shelter pets to ranch stock to the wildlife of the basin. The Saltlands gives all of them room to recover on open high-desert land, with release or placement as the first goal and lifelong sanctuary as the promise.
