Mythological Being of the Day: Amaroq

Amaraoq is a wolf (or wolves) of varying size from Inuit mythology. They are figures of diverse acts, eating humans but at the same time helping them. Sometimes they act as guides and teachers, other times as vicious monsters. Usually stories have them living and hunting alone, though sometimes pups are included in the tale, being taken care of by a parent.
