Wolf children (German: Wolfskinder, Lithuanian: vilko vaikai[1]) or Little Germans (Lithuanian: vokietukai) were German and Prussian Lithuanian[1] street children that existed in East Prussia at the end of World War II. Wolf children were mostly orphans left behind in the Evacuation of East Prussia and Red Army invasion in early 1945, with many living homeless in the forests of East Prussia or adopted by Lithuanian families.
