Howl at the Moon Day and Night

October 26 is Howl At the Moon Day and Night.

Dog howling at the moon.

We were unable to figure out what the unknown creators of this made-up holiday aim to accomplish, but we can only assume that it encourages people to go out during the day or night and howl at the Moon.

Howl Like a Wolf

The name of the holiday comes from the belief that wolves howl at the Moon. According to lore, on a full Moon night, wolves upturn their head towards the Moon and communicate with it by howling. Images of wolves with their heads turned towards the sky, howling with a full Moon in the background are commonplace today.

There is, however, absolutely no scientific evidence connecting Moon phases and wolf activities. Research has shown that wolves howl to communicate with the rest of their pack. Because they are nocturnal - they hunt for food at night and sleep during the day - they tend to howl at night. They turn their heads up when howling because doing so helps carry their sounds further.

How to Celebrate?

  • Learn more about wolves and their species.
  • Use the day as an excuse to take a night time hike with friends. Remember to let people know where you are going.

Did You Know…

…that wolves are the ancestors of present-day dogs?

“Has your diet changed?” 
I asked an 87-year-old woman I was admitting into the hospital.
 
“Yes,” she said. “For Lent, I gave 
up whipped cream on my Jell-O, hard candy, and my two beers a night. [Pause] And look where it’s gotten me.”
