In Norse mythology, the wolf, particularly the giant wolf Fenrir, represents chaos and destruction. Fenrir is prophesied to play a crucial role in the events of Ragnarok, the end of the world, where he is destined to kill Odin. The wolf symbolizes the untamed forces of nature and the inevitable cycle of life and death. Additionally, wolves are often associated with loyalty and family in Norse culture, reflecting complex attitudes toward beasts. Fenrir's narrative illustrates the duality of creation and destruction inherent in existence.
