Of The Tooth

While many cultures revere the domestic dog and wild bat, it is interesting to see how some also speak of a janus-headed dog (so perhaps a wolf showing two heads or two sides) and the depictions of what appear to be vampire or serpent creatures throughout Asia.

Many of the statues that could be seen as representations of vampire are often attributed to other animals. The readers will have to judge for themselves.

Other depictions and festivals include bears, wolves, tigers, serpents and panthers or depictions of hybrids.
