There are a lot of stories about the sea that the elders have told us, like the beluga whale that changed into a wolf and the beaver that changed into a killer whale. Whenever they wanted to change into an animal they would go to the shore.

Long ago if the whales were swimming around and they were really starving because they weren't able to find any food, they would come up on land and change into wolves. As wolves they walked around the land and ate everything that was in sight, that is until they came up to this one woman who had rubbed some ointment on her that would keep the dangerous animals away from her. The wolves could not touch her at all, so they went on until they found food somewhere else.

Until this day it is believed that they still change from land animals to sea animals, and sea animals to land animals. This is why Beluga whales sometimes have hair on them. It is said they are about to change into wolves.
