No. There is no solid proof of the existence of werewolves. They live in myths, stories, and legends created by people and cultures who let their imaginations run wild. Werewolves and vampires are popular characters in romantic fiction, although their exact physical qualities are portrayed in wildly inconsistent ways.

Some information about the supernatural werewolves of legend: there are many explanations in folklore about them, although there is no logical or scientific explanation for how they might exist.

European Werewolves

Werewolves originated in southern and eastern Europe, around the area of the Carpathian Mountains. In physical features, they are about a medium build, often having more muscle mass than fat (if well kept). They usually are quieter, communicating more through looks and small gestures. The males are often larger then females, except in the case of "Alpha Wolves" or those who keep growing at a slow pace to maintain dominance (much like wild wolves). The European werewolves were nearly wiped out, but a few packs managed to save themselves by emigrating to the New World. European werewolves were once able to change into wolves, but those that mated with humans soon had the gene for shifting bred out of the bloodline. European Werewolves are also called Lycans.

Skin-Walkers

A Skin-Walker is a Native American-Indian who takes the form of a wolf or coyote. The Navajo tribe called these "Yenaldalooshi" or "He who walks on four legs". The story goes that when one wears the skin of an animal, it gathers that animal's power and becomes that animal by shape-shifting. The intermingling of European species soon eliminated that ability for the majority of the Skin-Walker population. There are still very few of the pure-blood Skin-Walkers left, and of those only a handful can still shift. It takes on the mentality of the animal and behaves as a wolf would.

How do we know werewolves are real?

Those of you who said werewolves are not real, you are wrong. If they aren't real, were did the tale come from? There had to be a time when werewolves were known of. The reason of it is because if they weren't real, why, or rather how, would someone make up such a creature with such a rich history? It makes sense to see werewolves as real, they had to be. Where would the person get the tale from. At the origin, it had to of been from something, someone, somewhere real were the wolfman exsisted.
