Outcast

a
lone
grey wolf 
banished from 
the pack; an outcast 
roaming the vast Arctic tundra 
in search of prey and another pack to belong to.
encountering polar bears; it's a struggle for survival in the harsh elements.

When banished from the pack, everyone will become an outcast. To belong to a group is a desire and an urge in everyone. This is the case with man and beast. Love the way you have done justice to the topic. All the Best Edward !
