untameable
Cannot be domesticated
Untameable describes something that cannot be domesticated, subdued, or brought under control.
The word applies to wild animals that resist training, to people whose spirits refuse to submit, and to forces like nature or passion that defy human mastery: an untameable wilderness, her untameable curiosity.
