Isn't Udyr suppoed to be at peace with the spirit animals.

I recall in his original lore he went to Ionia to learn how to control his primal rage and be at peace with the spirits around him, and he accomplished that. So why is he stabbing himself in the palm with a nail throughout "The Volibear". I mean yeah, Voli is a monster, but Udyr is a shaman who lives with and has overcome all this shit. I feel like he should have been a lot more composed, if not overly excited, as opposed to nearly shitting himself.

Because nature isn't peaceful, the spirit is a tumultuous and unfettered thing, and it's easy to be thoroughly thrown off your game when you're faced with the primal incarnation of one of the fundamental forces of nature itself. Peace with oneself doesn't make nature any less quiet, it just makes it easier to ignore, and even the most sturdy rock gets weathered with time. That's how I interpret it anyway.
