What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Gregory the Dialogist
The beast will enter his covert, and will abide in his den. Who else is understood by the name of the beast, except our ancient enemy, who cruelly aimed at the deception of the first man, and mangled by his wicked advice the integrity of his life? against whom it is promised by the words of the Prophet, concerning the restoration of the Church of the Elect to its ancient condition, And no evil beast shall pass through it. …
Thomas Aquinas
That providence extends even to brute animals, who do different things according to different times by natural instinct, and so he says, "The beast will enter its lair," in rainy weather, "and will remain in its cave," for a fitting time.
