Description: A wolf and a lamb are facing each other. The wolf, to the left side of the image, is looking at the lamb with an angry expression, its left paw slightly lifted in the air as it slightly bares its teeth. On the right side of the image, the lamb is standing with awareness in its stance, slightly bending backwards not to intimidate the wolf.
