Zimba's Story

An original pack member and brother of Rocky, Zimba was one of Wolf Connection’s first program animals and wolf ambassadors he had a strong love of people, which made Wolf Connection what it is today. As he got older, he dealt with some health issues that “retired” him as a program animal but he was still a wonderful ambassador, greeting everyone with his regal stance. Zimba loved to go out on walks with staff that he had bonded with. Despite his physical ailments, when we showed him the leash, he would run around his enclosure with joy! He loved to go down to the creek and splash in the water with his brother Rocky. With soulful eyes, he is truly to be adored, admired, and missed.
