  1. Scientific #discovery involves making mistakes, but these are often omitted from official reports. In this preprint, I recount a #mistake which led to the discovery that #rats were making ultrasonic #vocalizations while playing. Scientific serendipity is worth celebrating! (thanks to Markus Wöhr for encouragement to submit the tale for a special issue on ultrasonic vocalizations).

  2. Crows Can Form Numerical Concept and Plan Their Vocalizations 
    Carrion crows can apply their learning ability and vocal control in combination to form an abstract numerical concept and use it for vocalizations............

  3. If you happen to be in München this September, make sure to stop by the 97th Annual Meeting of the German Society of Mammalian Biology to see my genius colleague Dr. Juan Olvido Perea García talk about our research about #vocalizations in response to different external #eye #appearances in #pygmy #marmosets (C. pygmaea).

  4. #Bats live in a world of sounds. They use #vocalizations both to communicate with their conspecifics and for navigation. For the latter, they emit sounds in the #ultrasonic range, which echo and enable them to create an “image" of their surroundings.

  5. The iconic #baleen #whales, such as the blue, gray and #humpback whale, depend on sound for communication in the vast #marine #environment where they live. However, ever since whale song were first discovered more than 50 years ago, it remained unknown how baleen whales produce their complex #vocalizations

  6. A UNIGE team shows that the human #brain is capable of identifying the #vocalizations of certain #primate species, if they are close to us and if the frequencies used are also close to our own.

    My experience is a) #flycatchers are impossible to ID… b) except when you familiarize yourself with their #vocalizations. The Eastern Wood Pewee is common in #Iowa… I've seen one just a few times, but in the spring I hear them several times a day! "Peee-oh-eeee…. (pause) Peee-uuur" 🙂

  11. The patterns and intensity of the #whales’ calls and songs over two years showed strong seasonality in their #foraging and breeding behavior, and the #vocalizations changed based on #environmental conditions such as a documented #marine #heatwave
