Click on the conjugation and scroll down to present tense lower than the participles to see which Russian pronoun uses each: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D0%B5%D1%81%D1%82%D1%8C#Russian The first is used with singular 3rd person pronouns (he, she, it) and the second is used with the plural 3rd person pronoun (they).

Ест волк. Your sentence is possible but it would emphisise "the wolf". You can say so if you answer the question "who is eating"? The wolf, the dog or the bear, may be?
If you answer the question "what is the wolf doing?" The answer would be "Волк ест".
