'February: Snow Moon

The Snow Moon is the Full Moon in February, named after the snowy conditions. Some North American tribes named it the Hunger Moon due to the scarce food sources during mid-winter, while other names are Storm Moon and Chaste Moon, but the last name is more common for the March Full Moon.'

Kuu means month or moon
Rado refers to the rutting time of wolves.

Also known as Hundikuu. Hunt means wolf, borrowed from German hund; Soekuu, from an old Estonian word for wolf, susi.
