Details
The rugged wolf is athletic and brimming with self-confidence. A close relative of the dog, but of course it’s stronger and more aggressive, managing to generate notoriety wherever it marks its territory. The wolf’s dark reputation is mainly due to its territorial nature. No animal can organize it pack as efficiently as the wolf.
The wolf always ready to take its place in the chain of command either as a leader or as simply a member of the pack. The wolf is clear-headed and strong-minded, and always willing to compromise in the interests of getting a job done.
Wolves are facially expressive and readily communicate their emotional states with body language. They work hard at developing their social relationships, although — unlike their cousin the dog — they are quick to anger when they sense threats to the social order. When confrontations occur, they sometimes react suddenly and violently, barking displeasure at offending subordinates. Close companions know to avoid their biting tongue until they resume their normal gregarious behavior.
Wolves are intensely ambitious and never shy from hard work. Socially adept, they function well in leadership and management roles as well as jobs requiring vision and strength of character. Being a natural motivator, their instinctive understanding of group dynamics serves them well in goal-oriented tasks.
Wolves demand absolute loyalty, and they provide the same allegiance to their pack. Their instinctive understanding of the chain of command makes wolves excellent soldiers or law enforcement officers.
No animal has been as misunderstood as the wolf. Cast as a bloodthirsty villain in folklore and children’s stories, wolves have enjoyed a special mystique that has engendered fear and respect throughout their range.
