Lone wolf (trait)
A lone wolf is an animal or person that generally lives or spends time alone instead of with a group.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lone wolf - Define Lone wolf at Dictionary.com )〕 The term originates from wolf behaviour. Normally a pack animal, wolves that have left or been excluded from their pack are described as ''lone wolves''.

(詳細はwolf that lives independently rather than with others as a member of a pack.
In the animal kingdom, lone wolves are typically older wolves driven from the pack, perhaps by the breeding male, or young adults in search of new territory. Many young wolves between the ages of 1 and 4 years leave their family to search for a pack of their own (this has the effect of preventing inbreeding), as in typical wolf packs there is only one breeding pair. Some wolves will simply remain lone wolves; as such, these lone wolves may be stronger, more aggressive and far more dangerous than the average wolf that is a member of a pack. However, lone wolves have difficulty hunting, as wolves’ favorite prey, large ungulates, are nearly impossible for a single wolf to bring down alone. Instead, lone wolves will generally hunt smaller animals and scavenge carrion.〔Mech L.D., Adams L.G., Meier T.J., Burch J.W., Dale B.W. (1998) The Wolves of Denali.
