Is This Russia Or Winterfell? This Family Has Their Own Brood Of Pet Wolves.


Russia suddenly looks a lot more like the fictional kingdom of Winterfell from HBO's
 Game of Thrones. And I'm not talking about the winter-y weather, either. This family 
has tamed their own brood of wolves who they share their home with just north of Minsk.
 (I'm sure they have a bit more luck than the Starks, though.) 
When you how close 10-year-old Alisa Selekh is to her pet wolf, you'll be amazed.
 For the past five years, her father Oleg worked on domesticating the typically 
violent canines and today they are so docile you'd hardly recognize their wild roots. 

This doesn't look like a big bad wolf to me!


She even takes a lift on her furry pal from time to time.


Her father Oleg, left, tamed the wolves after bringing them home in 2009.


Best friends!


Little red riding hood would have nothing to fear 

in this house.

This obviously takes an expert gamekeeper to accomplish such a daunting task.
 I wouldn't recommend inviting any wolves you see home for dinner without plenty 
of experience first!
