To me, wolfs are animals that mate for life. Therefore, a permanent mark such as a tattoo of a wolfs paw can be representative of commitment with a partner that is a relationship for life. More permanent than a wedding band, yet a private symbol between the individuals at the same time. Both have wolf related marks, just happening to be paw prints for simplicity of design and size. Besides, most guys would never be tattoed with anything related to swans, etc. So if you think about it you can see the selection of monogamous animals for this style ceremonial tattoo art is very limited.

Of course - like most tattoo's mean different things to different people. People who love animals, people who've gotten one in memory of a pet. I'm an animal rights activist, so a small paw print will soon be tattoo'd on the inner part of my wrist.There are certain styles of paw prints, warrior style ones and the claws - could be just what that person likes or it could be to do with an ancient spiritual thing, either Celtic or Native American.

A bear tattoo represents strength, protection and a connection to the wild. A bear paw represents the same, but can also tie the wearer to the gay scene, whereas hairy, bearded men are refered to as bears.
