History

Originally the site started out as WereTher, a small PHPBB-based forum for therianthropes. It had about 100 members at its peak, and struggled to diversify itself from other communities. It was closed on 12/24/2010 with no plans of reopening. It was then reopened as Wulf Howl in its current incarnation.
