Canid Howl Project

The Canid Howl Project is the work of a large number of scientists, trying to understand the range of different vocal behaviours of canids: primarily wolves, dogs, and coyotes. Despite being closely related, these animals have very different ways of communicating with howls, barks, yips, growls, etc. We hope to understand more about the whole range of canid species and breeds, by studing their vocal behaviour.

Come listen to the enchanting, haunting, sounds of wolves, coyotes, and dogs, and help us better to understand and conserve these species.

Analysing these recordings is difficult and time consuming. It's easy to make mistakes, and mistakes can change the conclusions that we draw. But here's where you can help! By having hundreds, even thousands, of volunteers giving their own analysis of the canid howls, we can investigate the role of these sounds, and understand more about the social behaviour of the whole range of canid species and breeds.
