Their connection to Odin is not just a myth. They were literally dedicated to him, and the evidence can be found on Torslunda plates discovered in Sweden. Them wearing bear or wolf skin also served as a heads-up for their fellow warriors that they should keep their distance during battle, because their rage was so extreme that they literally could not differentiate friend from foe. The bear and wolf skins were chosen not just because those animals are capable of mauling people, but also because Odin is known as a shapeshifter (not to the same purpose like Loki, who uses his skills to spread disorder) and wolves and bears were two of his favorite forms in which he represents himself to humans. Berserkers wore bear skins, while wolf-skinned iteration were called Ulfheðnar and who possibly inspired the myth of werewolves. There is a theory that their rage is induced by consumption of henbane, a plant that causes hallucinations and mood changes.
