Until recently, it was generally believed that domestic dogs evolved from wolves but recent studies have suggested that both the wolf and the domestic dog evolved from a common ancestor. Basically, nobody knows for sure, but there are lots of theories.

What is being done to help extint wolves?

Apart from that, there's no helping an extinct animal since they are, after all, extinct.
