This handsome guy is Piyip. At 13 years old, he is about as old as a wolf gets. He is now the sole surviving member of the Sawtooth Wolf Pack; living out his final, somewhat lonely days, at the Wolf Education and Research Center (WERC) in Winchester, Idaho. Piyip has led a very unique life as a wolf and has served to educate many curious humans. He is far from a pet, but, comfortable with some people if they speak a little wolf.
