The Wolf to the Haidas was a completely imaginary creature, existing on the mailand, but never seen on the Haida Gwaii. Nonetheless, he is an important figure in the crest hierarchy. Troublesome, volatile, ferociously playful in Haida mythology, he is usually represented in pofile, squatting with a long snout with flared nostrils, large and many teeth including canines, prominent ears, and a curled-over tail.
The Wolf had a special significance to Reid since it is a principal crest to his family.
Always kept protected and not exposed to light.
