There is something ancient in the air here, a story in the stones, a presence in the trees. Cumbria is more than a backdrop for Predator Park. It is the ancestral home of the wild wolf.
Long before farmland carved up the fells, before roads and railways, this land belonged to the wolf. For centuries, wolves roamed Cumbria’s dense forests and rugged peaks, shaping the ecosystem through their presence. The last wild wolf in England is said to have died at Humphrey Head, Cumbria in the 14th century. But we feel their spirit never left.
You can still hear it in the place names – Ulfa Fell (wolf fell), Ulverston (wolf town), and in the way the landscape breathes, untamed and powerful. These hills remember.
At Predator Park, we are not just reintroducing people to wolves. We are reawakening a relationship that once defined this land. Wolves are not the villains of storybooks – they are guardians of balance, keepers of the natural order, complex, intelligent and deeply social creatures.
Our ethos is rooted in respect. For the animal, for the land and for the bond between the two. We believe Cumbria is not just a fitting home for wolves – it is the only place this connection could truly be understood. It is where myth and meaning meet. Where the wild heart of nature still beats strong.
Wolves belong here, their history runs as deep as the slate through the mountains.
