Big Run Wolf Ranch
"Conservation Through Education"
About Us
We're Big Run Wolf Ranch, and we've been a non-profit wildlife rescue here in Lockport, IL, since 1986. We believe in conservation through education, offering on and off-site presentations, school field trip opportunities, and an open house to the public once a month. We started this business because we've had a long-time love of animals. We're looking forward to growing our business to continue to serve Lockport and the surrounding communities. We'd like to personally invite you to call us today to book your special event, field trip or come in on one of our open house events and meet our beautiful rescued animals. Big Run depends upon public donations to continue its work. You can help! Donating through our secure server is fast and easy, and when we receive your donation, we will send you an acknowledgment in the mail for tax purposes. We are open by Appointment Only and Open to the Public Once a Month! Please give us a call with any questions!

We had our son's 5th birthday party there recently and it was such a wonderful experience. The ranch is well kept and clean and the tour was fun for adults and kids. A few parents commented that it was such a unique kid birthday party experience. I would highly recommend Big Run Wolf Ranch!
