Derek said Wendigo are cannibal shapeshifter but it was said that they had people (and therefore humans) in the basement.

So how can wendigo be cannibal if they feed in humans? Or Derek just mistook cannibal as anthropophagic shapeshifter? Or more, are shapeshifters human in all but magical powers?
