Wolves are animals of the canis family of the canidae family. They are native to the wilderness and remote areas of North America, Eurasia, and North Africa. In television fiction, wolves play a large role mostly in the horror genre, due to their association with certain supernatural creatures such as vampires and werewolves. They also appear in period pieces such as wilderness settings like on Little House on the Prairie.
Werewolf character Wilfred Glendon passed by a wolf cage at the London Zoological Gardens in the 1935 monster movie Werewolf of London, directed by Stuart Walker.
On the North American version of the TV series Being Human, the werewolf characters on the series refer to their supernatural animal form as "their wolf". They can communicate with the animal on an instinctive level by way of meditation. [1]
On AMC's The Walking Dead, there was a survival group who called themselves the Wolves. They were a nomadic pack of savage murderers, who believed that they were offering people salvation by sparing them from the atrocities of the world they were now forced to live in. The Wolves did not hold to any structure or tradition, but were distinguished from non-Wolves by carving the letter "W" into their foreheads. The Wolves launched a massive raid against the citizens of the Alexandria Safe-Zone in Alexandria, Virginia, indiscriminately killing numerous people using a wide variety of methods. [2]
