Take a listen to one of the hundreds of sounds we have recorded and uploaded to the Macaulay Sound Library as part of the Big Year of African Sound
The African Bioacoustics Community Sound Library focuses on building and bolstering sound libraries for African wildlife. Citizen scientists can play an important role by contributing data which can later be used for a variety of ecological and public engagement purposes.
We invite you to listen to the life around you and contribute to our project. Here is how you can do that:
- Record the sounds while appreciating the wildlife, such as birds, mammals and fish;
- Preferentially make your records in .WAV format;
- Try to spend at least 30s recording your focal animal;
- Upload your recordings together with photograph and/or video for species identification

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.
