New Theory: Moonlight Howl.

We see in the first movie that the Moonlight Howl is an event where wolves meet to howl (what we perceive as singing) but some things remain unclear.

I'm The Theorist, and this is Inside the Story.

This segment will be relatively short, but let's look briefly at the Moonlight Howl.

What exactly IS it, and why does it occur? Is it a Western only event, یا do parties from both, یا all packs in the park attend?

Based off of the number in attendance, at least those I can see, I would have to say that it is a combination of at least two packs, most likely the East and West, but how is it that the two packs, which are on the brink of open warfare, can meet at the same place and howl peacefully together without there being conflict?

There are a few possibilities that I can come up with here.

The first is that, at the very least, howling is something that the two packs have in common, so they can put their differences aside for one night and come together to howl. Perhaps the Moonlight Howl was a traditional practice that the pack shared once upon at time if it was actually a single pack, and they allowed it to remain open for both packs so long as they agreed that all hostilities would be dropped.

The سیکنڈ possibility, and not trying to force anything in particular upon anybody, is that the Moonlight Howl is a spiritual event where they all gather to worship the moon, یا whatever else they may possibly believe in, like going to church, یا to a mosque. This idea seems rather far fetched, as so far religion is something known only to be practiced سے طرف کی humans. However, in order to make it easier to connect with the characters, the producers could easily have entwined a hint of spirituality into the lives of the wolves.

Either way, whether آپ believe in it یا not, worship is a pretty good reason to put the feud aside, because for some, there is no greater importance than God, یا whatever other name it is given.

But دیا that the wolves dance and some probably, shall we say, conjugate, at the Moonlight Howl, I would have to say that it is likely not a holy event, even though there are some religious houses where song and dance go hand in hand. I still don't think that burying bones can be considered appropriate in a holy setting if آپ catch my drift.

Heck, with the way I just described it, it almost sounds like it could be a fertility banquet of some kind... But probably not. Let's just skip that part...

So that's all I have to say about the Moonlight Howl, اگلے let's look at the scene right before Kate and Humphrey are drugged سے طرف کی the park wardens and shipped off to Idaho.

We know that the wardens chose Kate and Humphrey, but was this decision based off a whim? Were they shot just because they were the only two wolves they could find together who happened to be of opposite genders? Maybe. Maybe the wardens were lazy, or, maybe they saw the way that the two interacted as a display of flirtation.

This seems much مزید plausible, as we know that wardens are usually experts, یا know a lot about the animals inside of their nature reserves, so they should know that pairing two random animals together and hoping that they would mate would not yield a very high chance of success, because let's face it, even in the animal kingdom, females are very picky about their suitors.

I think that the wardens saw Kate and Humphrey together, and, even though Kate was displaying frustration with her partner, her body language suggested that she was playing with Humphrey. It was obvious that Humphrey was playing with her, so they just needed to watch and be sure that she interacted in a similar fashion before making their decision. At least we can agree that, either way it happened, it was the greatest thing to ever happen to the park.

Next, I'll point out something that seems slightly unrealistic.

When Kate and Humphrey leap off of the cliff to address Marcel and Paddy for the first time, Kate lands on her paws after turning a series of flips, but Humphrey falls at the very least twenty feet and lands directly on his chest. I'm no expert in anatomy, but with the amount of force he would have struck the ground at from falling from a height like that, I would have to assume that he would have broken some ribs, and had the wind knocked out of him for sure. Needless to say, he would not have pulled himself straight up to his paws and shook it off with a few stretches.

Next, Marcel's shot.

Would it have actually gone in?

I know that physics are not-existent in cartoons, so I have a hard time even imagining it making it to the hole in the first place, but with the way the ball was rolling, I would have to say that it would not have had the amount of آگے momentum needed to overcome the oblong point over which it would have had to turn in order to go into the hole. In fact, it almost looks as though the ball had stopped a fraction of a سیکنڈ before the bird touched it, so I'm going to have to say that he would not have gotten his birdie.

Next. Marcel would have to be super ہنس to not have been taken down سے طرف کی Humphrey when he latched onto his foot, let alone lift him up off of the ground and fly around with him for as long as he did. Now, I'm not downsizing the movie, because I love it. Why else would I be a پرستار of it and watch it so closely? I know it's a kid's movie, and like I said, physics do not exist in cartoons, so it works in a comical standpoint, but afterwards, it becomes questionable at best. We'll call this one cartoon none sense and let it slide.

I've run out of things to say for this segment, now it's time to let me hear from you. What are your thoughts on all of this?
