This wolf was caught in the Himalayan region of Tibet to reside permanently in the Badalin Safari north of Beijing. They are generally found in parts of Central China, southwest-Russia, Manchuria, Tibet and the Himalayan regions of India, Nepal and Bhutan. As there are only an estimated 6000 left surviving in the Himalayans, the Tibetan Wolf is threatened to disappear as it is hunted for its fur and its teeth. To Tibetans, amulets have more importance of warding off evil comparing with the ornamental value. They believe when you wear the amulet on the pivotal position of you body, it protects you from devils' incursion and bring you peace.
