Timber Wolf Alliance was founded in 1987 to provide support for wolf recovery in the Upper Great Lakes region. The mission of TWA is to use education to promote and maintain a viable population of wolves in the western Great Lakes region with a special emphasis on Michigan and Wisconsin.

TWA programs promote strategies which enhance wolf populations and stable interrelationships within the natural community. TWA provides training in wolf biology and ecology, educational materials on wolves, support for state wolf monitoring efforts, and opportunities for volunteers. Volunteer activities include: teaching others about wolves, assisting in wild wolf track surveys, staffing wolf booths at public events and distributing educational materials about wolves. TWA, formerly a program of the Sigurd Olson Environmental Institute, is now a part of the North Lakeland Discovery Center.
