[HPFGU-Movie] foreshadowing

[Valerie Flowe]

I thought it was interesting when I turned on the subtitles and  watched POA
and in the DADA class when Snape is the substitute, his voice drones  on (in
such a teacherly fashion -- Rickman is such a brilliant actor!) saying  the
various ways to become a werewolf are to become one as a shape-shifter, to
be 
bitten by a werewolf, etc.  This "shape-shifter" comment intrigued me,
because 
I don't recall them being mentioned in canon, unless you count Animagi  as
shape-shifters.  So this bit was new -- does it mean someone we know and
love 
might become an Animagi of a werewolf to keep a certain professor he cares
about company as his dad did in days gone by???  The mind boggles!   ;->

...and if so, why didn't the trio of friends learn to become werewolf
animagi, so that they could REALLY relate to their buddy Moony?
Though, I guess if given a choice, a stag, rat and dog would be less
volatile and dangerous than having 4 werewolves running around Hogwarts!
