We’ve seen hundreds of squirrels but this is the first time we recorded one ! Did you know squirrels can speak ? We thought we were hearing a bird- but no- this cute critter was by up the tree speaking with his mouth full! A surprisingly number of species use sound to communicate - and this angry sound was very cool

The Sound Perception in Animals Workshop 2023 arose from the idea of bringing highly qualified experts in bioacoustics to promote capacity building for South African students and researchers on the topic. The event was possible due to the collaboration between the African Bioacoustics Community through Sea Search Research and Conservation and the University of Southern Denmark, taking place at the Shark Spotters venue, in Muizenberg, Cape Town, on the 17th of May 2023.
