Just over 400 people have received the Bronze Wolf since its creation in 1935. WOSM has restricted the number of recipients during the award’s history in order to maintain its significance. Currently, the award is limited to approximately one recipient for every two million members worldwide.^[1]

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

History

WOSM first considered an international Scouting award in 1924. The topic was reintroduced 1932, with a decision reached in June 1934. The Bronze Wolf award was modeled after The Scout Association's Silver Wolf award.^[8] On August 2nd, 1935, WOSM committee unanimously resolved to award the first Bronze Wolf to Baden-Powell.^[8][9][10]

Recipients

Awards numbered 22, 50, and 84 were withheld, and number 342 was declined for reasons that have never been made public.^[11]
