## About

A representative from the Ohio Canid Center comes to Westerville Public Library to separate wolf facts from fairy-tale myths. The talk covers wolf history, family life, habitat and diet, and afterwards families can stay for an up-close look at a live wolf ambassador. It is pitched at ages 6 and up and runs about an hour on Sunday afternoon, closing out the library's month-long Wizards & Wands Festival. Children ages 6 and 7 need a parent or caregiver age 18 or older to stay in the room.
