Inside You There Are Two Wolves Meme Template

Two animals face each other beneath a solemn announcement about your inner wolves. Use the blank space below to describe two competing impulses, preferably over something very ordinary.

The image promises a profound explanation of human nature. A caption about snacks, sleep, or indecision brings that promise down to earth.

The two sides can disagree, or they can want the same thing for different reasons. Either way, the caption should explain what each “wolf” wants.

MachiavelliCro posted the composite artwork Black and White on DeviantArt on October 29, 2012. The artist credited the stock-image contributors in the description. The black-and-white composition predates the familiar caption format. [1]

The meme borrows a story about two wolves representing competing inner qualities. The story’s origins and frequent tribal attributions are uncertain. Know Your Meme documents humorous versions of the image caption circulating in November 2018. [2]

The opening sentence is already printed above the picture. Add your explanation in the white space below, keeping both faces and the moon unobstructed.

Start with “One…” and follow with “The other…”. A short conflict is enough; the serious artwork supplies the drama.

The two impulses

In the white space beneath the animals.

• Use the white area under the picture.
• Describe both wolves in the same caption.
