wolves don't specifically howl to the moon. They don't think "hey there's a moon! I'm going to howl to it".
People normally think they howl to the moon because they usually howl at night. But that's because wolves are nocturnal. They are awake during the day time as well and do sleep at night sometimes. But they normally hunt at night. This, i do not know why.
Wolves howl to communicate and when they are hunting communicating is very important.
Wolves howl at the moon because they howl out their worries,longings and fears......(wolves479 speaking) NO this answer is actually incorrect the wolf howls because its a way of comuunacation and they are more active at night so they dont technically howl AT the moon they are communicating with other wolves
They might not be necessarily howling at the moon, as when they turn into their wolf forms the wolf side takes over so they'll probably just be howling anyway, probably to get attention of other werewolves or animals attention.
Wolves howl....But they don't howl at the moon. In fact wolves have no interest in the moon at all. The common myth of a wolf howling at the moon probably comes from the way the wolves howl. When wolves howl they lift their heads towards the sky and it looks as if they are howling at the moon. But why do they lift their heads when howling ? Wolves lift their heads when they howl because the sound waves carry further than what they would if the wolf didn't lift its head when howling. A wolfs howl can be heard up to 6 miles away. Wolves howl mainly at night because they are nocturnal animals. Wolves howl for various reasons to warns off other wolf packs, To find each other, call for the pack to meet up and sometimes they may just howl for fun . Each wolf will have a slightly different howl. So wolves can tell each other apart even in the dead of night. In fact wolves don't just howl at night they also howl at dawn, dusk and day. The alpha wolf will have a howl that is lower in frequency. Wolves in packs howl all the time but lone wolves do not howl as much because they do not want their where about to be known by potential predators.
People believe this because of the myth of were-wolves. Wolves don't actually howl at the moon, they howl to other wolves.
Wolves do not howl at the moon, that is a myth.
because they are calling other wolves
Wolves are said to howl to communicate with the spirit, god, goddess, or other supernatural being living in the moon. They do this to cheer them or to simply call to them and let them know they are there. They howl to communicate with each other.

As the rumors of wolves say, they always howl actively at a full moon, but actually those rumors aren't true. The moon actually has a very little effect on the wolves. Wolves simply howl to interact with each other, and they howl at almost any time of day, but they howl a little more often when the moon is out. I hope this answered your question.
When wolves howl at the full moon, they are basically trying to say where they are or they're asking for the pack to come to where they are. The moon has no purpose in their howling since wolves howl with or without a moon. They may also howl to warn other members of the pack of danger.
At least there is not a Full moon A full moon is a myth for when wolves howl. Wolves howl to gather, let other packs know that they are there, or even howl when new pups are being born. So wolves howl for many different reasons not just the ones listed.

Wolves dont actually howl at the moon like most people think..wolves are nocturnal which means they're awake during the day (sometimes at day too) so they are just more active at night. (and howling is a way to communicate)
Actually,wolves dont howl to the moon.Wolves howl because there telling the pack either its time to hunt,its time to eat,im lost please come find me,or they might just do it for fun!wolves lay there head back as far as they can and let a BIG burst of air out!but slowley.
Howl to the moon d.a.
Coyotes are similar to wolves in many ways, but not the howl. Wolves have a clear, smooth howl, and coyotes have a whimper-like howl. When coyotes howl, they are barking and then let out a short howl, then keep doing high pitched howls.
