Skinwalkers

Werewolves is just another way of meaning
lycanthrope. Also using the term skin walkers and shape shifters are
fairly common. When most folks here this terminology they think oh
something out of a horror movie impossible no way etc.. But its very
possible and I will tell you why. There are many animals out there like
jelly fish, chameleons, etc that can change its form, color, even shape so
why is it not possible that occasionally a human being can do this. What
it boils down to is our DNA make up and molecular structure. By simple
reorganizing them we are able to change our make up, look, and body
structure. The native Americans believed in skin walkers Indians that
could change into the wolf which was very sacred to them. Today we call
them lycanthropes a legend about people changing into one when the moon is
full. The moon plays a big role in our lives it causes tides to change,
people to become strange perhaps because its pull has some bearing on our
brain cells. Legend has it that the moon causes something to happen to
the person creating a change or activating one thus a werewolf
transfigures. I myself have not seen one but these are not new legends but
are 100s of years old. We have the old German legends or how about the one
medieval one about the boy who wore a belt and changed into one. The start of lycanthropes began in the Greek mythology days about a god who was changed into half of a wolf. In today's society they are still around we just don't pay much mind to it. Often we categorize it as a disease where a person takes on wolf characteristics. But often you hear about half man and half wolf creatures. But they are around even sasquatch is said to be a shape shifter with the ability to change into a tree or blend with a tree for camouflage.
