The World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM) Bronze wolf award is awarded by WOSM for "outstanding service by an individual to the World Scout Movement".[1][2][3][4][5][6]

The award consists of a bronze wolf pendant with a WOSM emblem hung on a dark green ribbon bordered by two narrow stripes of yellow.[7]

Since the award's creation in 1935, fewer than 400 have been awarded. WOSM has limited the number of awards, previously to two with a two-year period, in order to keep the award a notable honor and it was given even more rarely, with only 12 awards being bestowed between 1935 and 1955.[1] However, between 1955 and 2015, the award was bestowed 346 times. WOSM guidelines are that awards should be limited to "approximately one award for each 2,000,000 members worldwide".[1] Eight Bronze Wolf Awards were given in 2017.[8]
