The researchers suspected the reason no one heard giraffe communication was because the sound frequency was too low for humans to hear.

Do elephants have vocal cords?

Elephants can go much lower than humans, however, because their vocal cords are eight times longer. ... There are two ways to produce sound by vibrating the vocal cords (or vocal folds, as scientists call them). The first is called active muscular contraction, or AMC.

Do dolphins have vocal cords?

Do dogs have vocal cords?

Dogs have larynxes (that look similar to humans), lungs that breathe in and exhale air, and a vocal tract (throat, mouth, nose).

Which animal makes the loudest noise?

Not only can baleen whales emit calls that travel farther than any other voice in the animal kingdom, these giants of the deep also create the loudest vocalisations of any creature on earth: the call of a blue whale can reach 180 decibels – as loud as a jet plane, a world record.

What animal is loud?

Although blue whales are considered by most to be the loudest animals, there are many ways to measure loudness. At pure decibels, the sperm whale is louder than the blue whale because its clicks have been recorded at 230 decibels.
