This is what 40 wolves howling sounds like 😍 | Wolf Conservation Center

Why do wolves howl? Howling may be heard during the day or at night, it's not a behavior directed at the moon. Instead it's used as a social rally, a hail to hunt or as a territorial expression. Did you know that wolves have different howls that can be heard 6-7 miles away? A howl can also help a lost wolf find its way home. A wolf separated from it's pack uses a lonesome howl, a shortened call that rises in pitch, if answered the wolf then responds with deep, even howls to inform the pack of it

Fun fact: January's full moon, known as the Wolf Moon, is named for the wolves' winter howls. And tonight is the night it shines full. 🐺🌕 Few animals evoke the wild like wolves. Majestic, intelligent and highly social, they’re crucial in driving evolution and balancing ecosystems. For years, the Center has been fighting to stop wolf persecution and link isolated populations together, for the sake of wolves themselves as well as for ecosystem rejuvenation on a broader scale.
