Line 13:
Other creatures are occasionally shown howling at the moon, but wolves and werewolves are by far the most common.
 
Compare [[Howling to Thethe Night]] which is when a wolf's howl is used to signify the change from day to night. See also [[Howl of Sorrow]], for when a howl is used emotionally.
{{examples}}
 
== Anime & Manga ==
* The characters from ''[[WolfsWolf's Rain]]'' are actually invigorated during a full moon. It doesn't necessarily make them stronger or anything, but they feel tremendous joy and energy just seeing it in the sky. Joyous enough to want to howl at it.
* ''[[Vampire Hunter D]]: Bloodlust'' does the werewolf version, with the [[Wolf Man]] howling in front of the full moon after he transforms.
** With a maw that grows from his ''[[Body Horror|stomach]]!''
* In ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (Animeanime)|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'', the first time we see [[Familiar|Arf]] transform was during the eve of a full moon in the first season. Naturally, this trope was required. In fact, it was the only time we've ever seen one of the wolf familiars howl in the series.
* In ''[[Spice and Wolf]]'' Holo the Wisewolf is introduced howling at the moon; a pretty powerful scene, as though she is in a human form, the howl is definately that of a wolf.
 
Line 32:
 
== Literature ==
* The first time the ''[[Animorphs (Literature)|Animorphs]]'' morph wolf, they can't stop howling at each other.
 
 
== Live Action TV ==
* ''[[Dinosaurs]]'': Dinos howl at the moon. Howling Day is the day a male dino first gets to howl (''a la'' a Bar Mitzva).
* Let's not forget about the episode "Tooth and Claw" in ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]''.
 
== Video Games ==
