Daniel, I realize that Germanic heraldry is probably not among your
strong interests, but I just thought of a wolf-related charge that
was more than a little common in-period, at least in Germany (maybe
Poland and east/northward?): that funky wolf's-teeth geometric
charge / pseudo-line-of-division.

A matter of in-period inter-kingdom anthropology, perhaps, with the
Norse/Germanic areas more familiar with wolves than lions, and more
apt to use their positive symbology.

Sorry to hear about the losss of the alpha-female. I've seen at
least some of your pictures...
