Better Enchantment than most bestow cards.
THis is a card that was designed probably for imited but at least could see some use on kitchen tables. That would be all I ask for as design guideline. Just take a look at all the other cards of this set that scream "limited card" - most of them aren't even fringe playable in the weakest casual environments. They are just there to be played in limited once and never been touched again - you could say they are cardboard garbabe from the moment they were printed.
This card is good played on Ornithopter, if only becuase your opponent won't expect it.
@Lord_Of_Tresserhorn I was going to say the same thing about Young Wolf...

Maybe more wolves in Journey into Nyx? There's only 2 other wolves in Standard right now, 3 if you count Mutavault. Maybe it could be a thing with some populate shenanigans...
As far as limited goes, this works quite well. Yea, it eventually becomes useless as your wolves die, but it definitely presents a very real threat when it first comes out. And I agree with user Vividice, as far as kitchen table play goes, this looks like a lot of fun.
At the pre-release, I was able to cast this on a Nyxborn Wolf. I also bestowed another Nyxborn Wolf on top of it, and then got up from my chair and exclaimed:
"Ladies and gentlemen, not only has this wolf been RAISED by wolves, it has also been bestowed by the ESSENCE of the wolf. Yes, you heard me right; what we're dealing with here is the legendary Three Wolf Moon!"
My opponent then played a counterspell, and in response, I sat back down.

2/2 green creature tokens existed in Theros block before this card, and they were boars. In development, this card was called Raised by Pigs. True story.
This card has some flavor issues (Romulus and Remus were obviously Roman, not Greek) and it contributes to the unusual token inflation of this block, but I'm glad it was made. Howl of the NIght Pack and Derpywolf are much more exciting than Brindle Boar.

Ha, more like that cat made those wolves more ferocious, not the other way around...

After playing against this card, it creates some funny scenarios. Centaurs raised by Wolves, Giants raised by Wolves. I'm still waiting for someone to enchant this guy on a God.

I love this card in limited. If you manage to trigger a nice heroic ability it just sweetens the deal.

Basically a wolf deck with a Gruul Gal thrown in there. :)
At first glance? Huntmaster of the Fells.
Just enchant your Scion of the Wild.
