Lobo

Lobo symbolize the wolf. He is emblematic movement for the fight of the civic rights. The wolf, majestic animal. He has a great interior force and a cat-like beauty. It wise and is equipped with a deep instinct of survival. But Lobo is removed with his natural habitat to be introduced into an environment which is completely foreign for him. To survive this new environment, it must adapt, change, give up its being, its language, its habits,
It gives up its identity and for as much, it inspires the fear and the rejection. Without its identity, he suffers until losing the respect of itself of it. Its life is hard. It must fight. It must reach the stages to find its niche or quite simply to die out. Reflection of their existence.
