Hello. My name is Ivan. I’m the owner of “Seryi” (rus. Gray) wolf. I’ve bought it from farmers when it was a pup, and I've been trying to make its life as comfortable as possible since. I have a daughter who studies for cynologist and social worker in two Universities and helps me to achieve this goal.
I, my daughter and the wolf are currently living in a studio apartment. I dream of getting a plot, a piece of land where I can build a large aviary where “Seryi” can live in a semi–natural environment. I’ve tried to reach out to various organizations many times but, unfortunately, all my attempts were ignored. As of today, I see just one solution – to make a wolf sanctuary where “Seryi” can get a decent home where it can live comfortably and continue giving valuable scientific data.
The wolf has been saved by chance. It was found together with its 5 brothers and sisters by local farmers and was the only one that I was able to save. It’s been living in my family since. It won’t be able to survive in the wild. "Seryi" has became a part of my family and I can’t abandon it. I’ll do everything in my power to make its life as comfortable as possible.
I am ready to co–operate with anyone interested in studying the wolf, learning its behavior and instincts. I believe that “Seryi” can help people better understand the wildlife by giving a valuable data about wolf's character, behavior and physiology, and we should study it thoroughly while we have that chance.
