If we're going to be really pedantic, there's nothing to say that
conclusively that Poledera wasn't... She was first met as a wolf, and
was often one, but then she was often an owl too. There was a comment
about
"So that's how it's done" with shape changing, but she's hidden the truth
once or twice when convenient (probably part of the attraction between her
and Belgarath). And Belgarath can't recall where he came from. Might've
been
born a wolf and instincively changed when very young without realising it.
Or have I just spent too long in the pub?
