Inspiring Youth Leaders Behind the Summit
Meet the dedicated young leaders behind the Lobo Youth Summit. Lillian and Clara blend creativity, research, and a deep passion for wolves to help guide this youth-led initiative. Alongside their work illustrating wolf stories and engaging other students, they support Summit coordination, organize outreach and materials, and assist with participant communications, working closely with the Grand Canyon Wolf Recovery Project through ongoing mentorship.
Lillian and Clara currently live in Vancouver, British Columbia, and have been remotely volunteering for the Grand Canyon Wolf Recovery Project since February of 2025. Starting in early childhood, they have shared a passion for art and telling stories through their work. Their dogs Poppy, Rose, Iris, and Nutmeg have fueled their love for dogs both wild and domestic. They began watching live webcams of captive Red and Mexican wolves in the autumn of 2023. This sparked an interest in the conservation of endangered wolf species. Inspired by their favourite lobo sisters, Diane, Hélène, and Bria, Lillian and Clara created a family tree for Mexican wolves. They reached out to GCWRP shortly after learning of their large scale Lobo Family Tree Project. Lillian and Clara have used their passions for art and canids to raise awareness about the plight of Mexican wolves. They currently write and edit articles for the GCWRP newsletters, help organize data for the Lobo Family Tree, classify images from trail cameras, and are writing and illustrating a collection of wolf biographies for the Lobo Youth Summit.
