  6. πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ TIL: πŸ•πŸ—£οΈ In #Budapest, researchers train #dogs to bark on cue, to study whether domestication shaped vocal #learning and its ties to #speech #evolution.

    Embedded in the EU-funded #K9VocLearn project, the work links to the self-#domestication hypothesis and could inform #tools that someday read dog emotion from their #sounds. A citizen #science arm invites dog owners worldwide to contribute recordings.

  7. πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ TIL: πŸ‹βš“ Sperm whales near #Dominica shorten their click sequences and shift their vowel-like #sounds when #ships are present, according to researchers from #ProjectCETI and #UCBerkeley.

    The team analyzed over 1,000 codas from 15 #whales over four years, finding that rhythm and click timing best predict nearby #vessels. The findings add to efforts to decode whale #language and understand how human noise affects #marine life.

  8. πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ TIL: πŸ‹πŸ—£οΈ Sperm #whales in the #Mediterranean are splitting into two dialect groups: eastern whales clicking faster, western whales clicking slower, according to researchers.

    By studying over 5,000 recordings from #Greece and #Spain, scientists discovered distinct regional accents.
