Description
In Native American, Inuit & Nordic storytelling & legend, the Wolf & the Raven figure prominently together. Few animals have such a keen symbiotic relationship, and both are highly intelligent & social animals. If your looking for wolves, look for ravens, as neither is often far away from the other.
It appears that the wolf and the raven have reached an adjustment in their relationships, such that each creature is rewarded in some way by the presence of the other and that each is fully aware of the other's capabilities. Ravens will often spot, and lead wolves to their prey, and of course the raven is also rewarded with the spoils of the kill.
Both species are extremely social, so they must possess the psychological mechanisms necessary for forming social attachments. Perhaps in some way, individuals of each species have included members of the other in their social group and have formed bonds with them.
