50 Wolves howling at night but not at the moon. This is probably a social rallying call. This is a short clip from a longer video from the #WolfConservationCenter This is their commentary: “Zephyr is a captive-born gray wolf at the Wolf Conservation Center (WCC), a 501c3 non-profit organization, in South Salem, NY. He is one of the four 'ambassador wolves' at the WCC that help teach the public about wolves and their vital role in the environment. If you want to watch Zephyr, Alawa, Nikai, Atka or the WCC's critically endangered Mexican gray wolves or red wolves in live time, visit our live wolf webcams at http://www.nywolf.org/webcams.

As for the howling at the moon mythology: “We hate to burst your bubble, but it is a myth that wolves howl at the moon! Howling may be heard at night, but it is not a behavior directed at the moon. Instead, it is used as a social rally call, a hail to hunt or as a territorial expression.” - Smithsonian’s National Zoo & Conservation Biology Institute •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. #Wolves #WolvesHowlingAtNight #WolvesHowling #50WolvesHowling https://www.instagram.com/p/B0KHCZ7gxPw/?igshid=1nw6anyi46icn
