In Greek mythology, a half-wolf is a half-man.

According to Greek legend, the Minotaur is a mutant monster with the body of a man and the head of a bull, descended from the unnatural love of the daughter of Helios Pasiphae, the wife of King Minos, to Poseidon (in some sources Zeus), sent by the god of the seas the bull, which was then tamed by Hercules and killed by Theseus.

The Minotaur is significantly higher than any of all existing people. He was completely naked except for a torn loincloth. The Minotaur was extremely muscular and sturdy. But the most remarkable thing was the bull's head. His eyes gave off a strange fiery glow, and his horns were large and slightly curved. The monster's teeth looked more like the teeth of a predator than a bull. The constant attribute of the minotaur was his curved club and muscular arms.
