2. Sketch the wolf's head and neck using a series of curved lines. On top of the small circle, sketch the forehead and open mouth. Enclose the triangular nose and teeth. Use a series of curved lines of various lengths that meet at jagged points to form the furry underside of the neck. Use curved lines to form the triangular shape of the ear, detailed with additional curved lines. Connect the ear to the large circle using a curved line.

Learn More About The Wolf Howling Drawing
"A dog cannot make this journey alone, but maybe a wolf can."
- Boris, Balto
The wolf is the largest of the wild dogs.
The gray wolf or timber wolf can be found throughout Europe and Americas, and the Ethiopian or Abyssinian wolf lives in Africa.
Wolf howls can be heard for miles and may sound eerie to the human ear.
But for the wolves, "this is simply a social activity of the pack — a form of communication." Wolves howl to locate one another, to announce territorial boundaries, or simply because they're happy.
In addition to howling, wolves also bark, squeak, growl, whimper, and yip.

Wolves are commonly depicted in fiction, and they are often howling.
One example appears in the animated film Balto, in which the half-wolf title character howls alongside one of his wild relatives.
Other wolf films include Alpha and Omega and The Jungle Book.
