In the capital of Ukraine, activists rescued a wild wolf that lived in an apartment for two years. The animal was purchased online, but its owners decided to surrender it to a shelter.

This was reported by the "Wild Animal Rescue Center" and the bear shelter "White Rock".

According to volunteers, the wolf cub was bought through the internet, but after two years of living in a flat, its health condition raised concerns. The owners decided to find it a new home.

At the scene, veterinarians sedated the wolf, and volunteers transported it in a special transport cage to the shelter.

"Now begins a long road to recovery. The wolf is undergoing examination and adapting to new conditions. The main thing is that he is now safe, and we are confident he will be well taken care of," – noted the "Wild Animal Rescue Center".

Shelter specialists at "White Rock" reported that the wolf sustained a broken bone and a metal plate was placed in one of its legs. Additionally, the predator has other health issues, including stomach and intestinal problems.

"He is incredible, and we are glad that his owners recognized their mistake and found him a wonderful place," – added the shelter staff.

Earlier in the Donetsk region, rescuers saved a cat that spent two days trapped under the debris of an apartment building.
