A lone wolf is an animal or person that acts independently or generally lives or spends time alone instead of with a group. The term originates from wolf behavior. Normally a pack animal, wolves that have left or been excluded from their pack are described as lone wolves.

Wolf[edit]

A lone wolf is a wolf that lives independently rather than with others as a member of a pack. In the wolf kingdom, lone wolves are typically either older female wolves driven from the pack, perhaps by the breeding male, or young adults in search of new territory. Many young female wolves between the ages of one to four years old leave their family to search for a pack of their own. This has the effect of preventing inbreeding, as there is typically only one breeding pair in a wolf pack.

Very few wolves remain lone wolves; but as lone wolves they may be stronger, more intelligent, more aggressive, and far more dangerous than the average wolf that is a member of a pack. However, lone wolves have difficulty hunting the wolves' favorite prey: large ungulates, which are troublesome for a single wolf to bring down alone. Instead, lone wolves generally hunt smaller animals and scavenge carrion,[1] and scent mark their territory less frequently than other wolves.[2]Titan quest atlantis.

Human[edit]

A human lone wolf is an individual who acts independently and prefers to do things on their own, prefers solitude, expresses introversion, or works alone.[3][4][5] Synonyms include individualist, free spirit, and nonconformist.[5]

In literature, lone wolves are often aloof and emotionally unable or unwilling to directly interact with other characters in the story. A stereotypical lone wolf will be dark or serious in personality; they are often taciturn and distinguished by their reserved nature.
