Wolf Haven International needs some new wheels. The van it uses to transport wolves to and from the Tenino-based wolf sanctuary broke down on Interstate 5 last week, leaving the non-profit organization without emergency transportation and unable to transport rescued animals to the sanctuary.

Wolf Haven is hoping for a donation of a cargo van in good condition or funds it could use to buy one, according to a news release. To help, call Wolf Haven at 360-264-4695.
