The Wolf Cub Salute is:
The salute is a very old form of greeting. Long ago when people greeted
each other, they help up their right hand with the palm forward to show
that they had no weapon in it. Thw salute is also a sign of respect and
friendship for a leader or another Cub or Scout.
When you salute a leader or another Cub, you use a special sign. You hold
your right hand to your forehead with two fingers spread out to look like
the pointed ears of a wolf.
