Skinwalkers
are supernatural creatures that transform into animals. They can shift from human form into dog form whenever they want. They much like
werewolves they eat heart.
They are said to be the cousins of
werewolves, due to their similarities. But they can change at any time instead of being limited by the phases of the moon. Also, their transformation into an animal is complete, whereas
werewolves continue to walk upright.
Numerous cultures all over the world believe in some version of a
Skinwalker, which is closely related to beliefs about
werewolves and other were-creatures. The best documented
Skinwalker beliefs are those of the
Navajo yenaldooshi. The
yenaldooshi are evil human beings who have gained supernatural power by murdering a close relative. The creature travels by night, spreading misery and desecrating holy things. He or she is usually naked, except for a coyote skin. The
yenaldooshi is also said to have the power to assume the form of a coyote or other animal.

In
Norse folklore, a
Skinwalker is a person who can travel in the shape of an animal or take on certain characteristics of an animal. The most well-known example is a warrior who takes on the strength and stamina of a bear, called bear shirt or berserker.
