Was researching a visit to a Wolf Center where I live. Found these guidelines for a visit:
~~~~~~
RULE: ENTERING AN ENCLOSURE
Wear only hiking boots, hiking shoes, athletic or fully enclosed foot gear. DRESS AS IF YOU ARE GOING ON A HIKE!
DO NOT WEAR:
• Fur (faux or otherwise)
• Suede or Leather clothing or shoes
• Anything with tassels, dangles, loose objects or decorations..basically anything that can be torn off of you
• Expensive jewelry, down coats, scarves, hats... anything that might be appealing to be stolen by a wolf
By wearing any of these items in an enclosure you MAY be at risk of losing that article of clothing or if a wolf becomes obsessed with an item, you may have to be escorted out. For safety reasons, no personal items in the enclosures (including cameras, cell phones and pagers).
Due to the potential risks involved in entering the wolf enclosures, you will be required to sign a liability waiver before you go on the tour. Unfortunately, we cannot allow persons who are handicapped mentally or physically, pregnant, have medical conditions and/or medical devices (e.g., oxygen tanks, walkers, canes, colostomy bags, etc.) or frail elderly persons to enter the animal enclosures. Staff will make the determination at the time of the interaction to determine if the individual is fit to enter the enclosure. If the ALPHA PHOTO tour has been prepaid, the money will be fully refunded.

Got a good laugh out of me
