There has never been a time when people have actually turned into wolves or wolf-men. The Greek word "lycanthrope" means wolf-skinned, and most likely refers to a group or feral warriors who wore the skins of wolves as a means to intimidate their enemies. As Canis Lupus lupus (the European Wolf) would have been very common in ancient times, this would have been more frequent than most people think, hence the common reference to wolf-men throughout the mythologies and lore of eastern and northern Europe, where it can get very cold.
