the loud howling cry of a hound or wolf

three large hunting hounds lift their heads toward the dark sky with mouths wide open in full howl. Their necks stretch upward as deep, resonant sounds emerge from their throats. The lead hound's call triggers the other dogs to join in the chorus. A hunter in the background covers his ears from the intensity of the sound. Forest animals in nearby trees scatter and flee from the overwhelming noise. Small sound wave lines radiate outward from each dog's mouth showing the power of their calls. the loud howling cry of hounds during their hunt
