I'm Tanner Campbell and this is the Dictionary of Mythology and Folklore's entry for Badalisc.

Dogs and wolves play a role in practicaly every mythological pantheon that exists. In Norse Mythology there's Sköll and Hati. In the Wales there's the Gwllgi. In Italy there's Lupa the she-wolf of Rome. In Africa there is Wepwawet of Egypt. The list goes on. And while dogs and wolves are common in the west, the further east you get the more often you are to see foxes more than wolves, or cats more than dogs, but in Korean mythology there is a type of dog that plays a central role in the cosmology of the world.
