Overview
Hello there,
Have you ever wondered why there are teddy bears, cuddly tiger toys, plush lions and so on, but almost no cuddly wolf toys?
A long, long time ago, when God created the earth, all the animals and the humans, He put fear of humans into the heart of the wild animals, so that they would stay away from humans. Which they did and still do, until today. All wild animals are shy, especially the wolf.
Back then, humans, that lived in harmony with nature, gained the trust of the wolf, so that some of their children stayed with the humans and became what is now known - dogs - mans best companion.
At the same time, humans started to kill the wolves, to such an extent that the wolf nearly got extinct over the whole earth. The wolf’s footprint disappeared from the surface of the earth, the forests and the knowledge of their behavior and the benefit wolves bring for nature, other animals and humans.

What To Expect
Have you ever wondered why there are teddy bears, cuddly tiger toys, plush lions and so on, but almost no cuddly wolf toys?
A long, long time ago, when God created the earth, all the animals & the humans, He put fear of humans into the heart of the wild animals, so that they would stay away from humans. Which they did and still do, until today. All wild animals are shy, especially the wolf.

At the same time, humans started to kill the wolves, to such an extent that the wolf nearly got extinct over the whole earth. The wolf’s footprint disappeared from the surface of the earth, the forests & the knowledge of their behavior & the benefit wolves bring for nature, other animals & humans.
Both, wolf & man, eat the same animals: goats, chickens, deer and cows. But the greedy human wants to eat everything on his own, chases & hunts the wolf & tells lies about the animal that is the ancestor of his best friend.
Come & learn the Truth about wolves in our most child-friendly, educational program.
