"The Wolf of the Haidas was a completely imaginary creature, perhaps
existing over there on the mainland but never seen on Haida Gwaii.
Nevertheless he was an important figure in the crest hierarchy.
Troublesome, volatile, ferociously playful, he can usually be found with
his sharp fangs embedded in someone's anatomy. Here he is vigorously
chewing on the Eagle's wing, while that proud, imperial, somewhat
pompous bird retaliates by attacking the Bear's paws."
Bill Reid, "The Spirit of Haida Gwaii."
