baying
Deep prolonged howling
Baying is the prolonged, deep howling of hounds, especially when pursuing prey: We heard the baying of wolves in the distance.
The word extends to any loud, insistent clamoring: The baying of the crowd for the politician's resignation grew louder.
To bay is to howl or demand loudly; baying for blood means calling for violence or punishment.
