This contemporary sculpture is carved in honour of the Wolf, his song and his teachings.

The Wolf is regarded as a teacher, his shy ways not revealing his knowledge.  It is said that a Wolf will show himself to Mankind when a lesson is to be learned, but what the lesson is, is not disclosed until the lesson is learned.

Carved on the Six Nations Confederacy of the Grand, proudly made in Canada.

Leroy Henry

Leroy Henry is a member of the Turtle Clan, Cayuga Nation, of the Six Nations Confederacy. 

Born in 1974, Leroy has enjoyed carving since
the age of ten. He is active in the traditional sports of lacrosse and snow-snake, but mostly enjoys sharing the traditional ways of his Elders through the tales
of his sculptures.

His large sculpture “Eagle Tree of Peace” in the
heart of Huron University's campus in London serves as a center-piece and symbolize reconciliation between his community and the Anglican Church.
