Howling III (also known as Howling III: The Marsupials and Marsupials: The Howling III) is a 1987 Australian comedy horror sequel to The Howling, directed by Howling II: Stirba - Werewolf Bitch director Philippe Mora and filmed on location in and outside Sydney, Australia. The film has several subplots including scientists experimenting on werewolves, Jerboa searching for a better life, and soldiers hunting them.
Although Gary Brandner approved the director's purchase of the right to the name The Howling and the screen credits claim that it is based on Brander's The Howling III, the film is unrelated to Gary Brandner's The Howling III: Echoes novel (1985), which is set in the USA and has an entirely different plot. The movie does have slight similarities in terms of plot and sympathetic view of the werewolf. (This aspect would be revisited in Howling VI: The Freaks.)

Has found out thy bed
Of crimson joy:
And his dark secret love
Does thy life destroy.”
