The concept of "Lycanthropy" or "werewolifsm" is an ancient one, and in almost all TRADITIONAL cases, Lycanthropy is a curse placed upon a human being (usually as punishment for some evil act). The basis of the idea likely comes from "civilized" people encountering "barbarian" tribes that wore animal skins into battle. The Norse word "berserker" itself lends to the idea of men wearing bear skins and being excessively violent in temperment in battle.

Modern takes on werewolves are very different, and many popular series indicate that lycanthropy is something you are born with, not something you can catch.
