But when he asked Cora she said Seventeen, well for humans. Seomthing like that, so we can assume that maybe they have something like dogs. You know dog years and human years. But for werewolves since their half wolf, I don't know wolf years and human years?

Derek could've been anywhere from physically 13 to 16 years old. While his actual age could've been something more like measured in days or months.

From all the interpertations of Werewolves that I've seen and heard about they almost always live longer than humans. They kinda rival the other supernatural shapshifters.

From what I can see physically he should be around 28 years old, because of the thing that Stiles said in season 1, he said "That's Derek Hale! His family burned to death in a house fire like ten years ago. So It could be assumed that he's either in his late twenties or early twenties.

I think they originally planned for the fire to be ten years ago, it's what they said in the pilot, but subsequently they changed it to six years. So Derek should be early to mid twenties. He definitely looked a lot younger in s1 with little to no scruff. The more shaggy his scruff/beard gets the older he's looking. But he still looks mid twenties it me, not 30.

As far as dog/wolf years to human year... That doesn't really make much sense because canines have shorter life spans than humans, so they would look older than they are, not younger, if animal years applied.
