Why is the image of wolves in traditional culture bad?

Because of the four characteristics of the wolf: greed, disability, wildness and violence, in China's traditional cultural concept, the wolf is synonymous with evil, and people associate all bad things such as evil, hypocrisy and cunning with the wolf.

Wolves have a bad reputation in the hearts of ancient civilized people. The direct cause of their notoriety is that wolves attack and harass human beings most frequently and the plot is the worst. The main characteristics of wolves are ferocity, cunning and stupidity, and people's attitude towards wolves is full of disgust, fear and hatred. For example, in the story "Mr. Dong Guo and the Wolf", Mr. Dong Guo imposed "universal love" on the evil wolf, which led to bad luck.

In modern society, wolf nature is usually regarded as a team spirit, which mainly emphasizes the spirit of innovation and tenacious struggle. It is a means to actively pursue the rules of survival of the fittest in nature and optimize the sense of collective crisis, so as to survive and develop in limited or inferior environment and resources. Only such a wolf team culture can survive, develop and be invincible in the competition.

From ancient times to the present, the wolf's position in people's minds is not high, which can be seen from the idioms describing the wolf, such as the wolf's ambition, hard heart, collusion, wolfing down, howling and barking.

The story of Wolf's Ambition tells people that most bad people are bad people, and like wolves, their nature cannot be changed. Beware of people as insidious and vicious as wolves, and it is essential to guard against people. Don't be confused by superficial phenomena, but see the essence of things clearly. The rivers and mountains may change, but not one's essential nature Wolves always eat people. Even a "wolf" will show its true colors as long as there is an opportunity.
