Werewolves are often granted extra-human strength and senses, far beyond those of both wolves or men. The werewolf is generally held as a European character, although its lore spread through the world in later times.

大概的意思是這樣：

狼人通常賦與強大的力量與敏銳的感知度，遠遠超越狼與人類。狼人經常被當作歐洲的特徵之一──僅管狼人的故事已經散布在世界各個角落了。

嗯...不是完全直譯，但大概就是這個意思~
