U+55E5 "嗥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily signifies the howling or roaring of wild animals, most commonly wolves. It is composed of the mouth radical on the left, indicating a sound or vocalization, and a phonetic component on the right that contributes to its pronunciation, which in Mandarin is "háo". This ideograph appears in classical and modern Chinese literature to depict fierce, resonant animal cries, often evoking a sense of wilderness or danger, and it can also be used metaphorically to describe loud, harsh human shouting or wailing.
