A wolf is a symbol of strength, freedom, independence, and mystery. The most impressive image in literature is a howling wild animal against the backdrop of the moon. A figure of a wolf, made using the origami technique according to the proposed pattern, is as attractive as an artistic image. An intense, piercing howl is conveyed by an elongated neck with a thrown-back head and straight, pointed ears pressed to the head. The front legs, frozen in a stance, are ready to react to a threat quickly. The large tail gives the predator grandness.

To make a graceful wolf you will need one sheet of origami paper and a little perseverance. For crafts, you need to choose paper in dark shades of gray, brown, and black. The wolf will turn out to be very mysterious and stylish. The pattern will seem complicated for beginner origami enthusiasts. Photos and video lessons will help you overcome difficult Steps of the process.
