Wolf-whistling or Finger whistling is a type of whistling in which fingers are inserted in the mouth to produce a louder and more penetrating tone.
A Wolf-whistle is a specific sound commonly made using the above technique to show approval of something or someone (originally a person thought to be sexually attractive).

Technique
Although the "wolf-whistle" or "wolf-call" sound can be produced using a conventional whistling technique, a louder and more effective form is usually used. To produce a wolf-whistle, one or more fingers are inserted into the mouth to shape the opening, allowing a forceful stream of air to be blown through.
Generally, the more air forced through the mouth, the louder the whistle.
