Wherever you are you can almost always hear animals, but the reasons how and why they make their sounds are as diverse as the noises themselves, the start of a fascinating story of adaption.
There are many ways animals use sound, from lions roaring to warn others of their territorial boundaries to deer bellowing a challenge to rivals. Others like frogs and birds, use love songs to entice a mate. And there are even animals that use sounds to ‘see’. Both bats and dolphins make high frequency sounds and listen to the returning echoes bouncing off any objects in their path to navigate and locate their prey. The sound-track of nature brings our world to life.
We often think we are special because of our desire to communicate. We see language as a human trait. But when you listen, animals have a lot to say.
Documentary: Sounds of Nature (2017)
