Learn More About The Snarling Wolf Drawing
The wolf is an animal that has captured the imaginations of humans for millennia. Wolves are native to Europe, Asia, and the Americas. They are the ancestors of "man's best friend," the domestic dog, but they have been both respected and reproached.
It is not surprising that the ancient Romans linked a growling wolf to their god of war. In Norse mythology, Loki fathered a giant wolf and Odin kept two of the animals as pets. In ancient China, the wolf was associated with cruelty or "wolf heartedness."
Fables also include angry wolves, such as Little Red Riding Hood and The Boy Who Cried Wolf. In The Jungle Book, angry wolves protected Mowgli.
Despite its reputation, the wolf is actually a shy creature who typically avoids humans. Humans are not the natural prey of wolves, and attacks on humans are rare.
