Most of the time when I think of a werewolf these days, I think of a human that shapeshifted into a bipedal wolf-like creature, that retains some human characteristics. A wolf-like head, a human-like torso and arms, clawed hands, digitigrade paws, maybe a tail, that sort of thing.

If you had to ask me what my favorite things are, I’d probably tell you dinosaurs, and other prehistoric animals first. Yet almost equally, I also adore werewolves, wolf men, and any flavor of lycanthrope. There’s many different cultural tales of men that could shapeshift into wolves or wolf like creatures (if not other animals), rather willingly or forced from a curse, spell, disease, etc.
