The wolf has been a part of lore and tales, and a symbol of various abstract concepts and ideas, for ages, and has instilled terror, adoration and even worship throughout this period. It has been, quite understandably, taken as the representation of darkness and cold-bloodedness. However, wolves happen to be intelligent, social, and considerably friendly in nature. Wolves are, of course, ferocious creatures if you try to cross them or rub them up the wrong side, or simply, catch them in the wrong mood, when they are hunting, for instance. Otherwise, they are seen as teachers or pathfinders, who also happen to be full of power, strength and vigor. They are to be amazing predators, and have the capacity to hunt down their prey extremely fast. They can be quiet and stealthy, so much so that even the animal with the sharpest auditory sense may not be able to hear them as they approach their prey.
Wolves are also respected for their maternal instincts, and are considered to be a great example of ideal motherly nature. They are playful, loyal, cautious, but curious of strangers, and extremely devoted to those they love. Wolves usually represent wisdom, speed, stealth and power, but have also been connected with cunningness, cruelty and even evil. They are considered to be related to various spirits due to their tendency to hunt at dusk and their howling, which they employ as their mode of communication. The wolf is held sacred to Apollo, the Greek god. It is used to symbolize shape-shifters, hence the evolution of the term 'werewolf'.
