Maugrim is a powerful wolf and one of the White Witch's servants in the book The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis. He is captain of the Witch's Secret Police (though only one of his lieutenants is ever seen). His name is derived from the words "maw" (meaning mouth), "morgue", and "Grim" (a foreboding wolf-like figure from English folklore). His name was changed to Fenris Ulf (a figure from Norse mythology) by the author [1] and this change was incorporated into early American editions of the book.
