starten motor killing battery

i think it's the starter motor that's killing my trucks battery, reason is, it's made a howling noise for ages but im to tight to pay a stupid amount of money for a new one, i think the starter is drawing to many amps as the battery holds its charge but if it aint started for more then a day and you go to start it it'll crank then livly then suddenly die, there's no power leakage

what the hell is wrong now
