 Animals make noises to communicate with each other.
We can often tell
which animal we can hear by the sounds that they make. |
| |
Lion
Lions make a roaring sound to communicate with each other. An adult
lion's roar can be heard up to five miles away and warns off
intruders or to call members of its pride. |
|
Elephant
Elephants make a trumpeting sound with their trunks to warn or
greet other elephants nearby. These animals also produce low-frequency
rumbling sounds, which can travel over great distances, reaching
the ears of elephants several kilometers away. |
|
Wolf
Wolves howl for a variety of reasons, to warn or greet other wolves,
to search for other members of the pack, to express happiness
and joy and even loneliness. |
|
Snake
The snake makes a loud and prolonged hiss when annoyed, it warns
predators off. Unlike many other animals, snakes do not hiss
to communicate with each other because snakes are deaf, instead
they are sensitive to vibrations that they feel through the
ground. |
|
Bison
Bison communicate through by grunting and snorting, these sounds
would be used to call members of the herd and to warn off predators. |
|
Goat
The Goat makes a bleating sound, again to call other Goats, some
people confuse their sounds with those that Sheep make however
they are quite different. |
