Will humans ever speak wolf? A scientist unravels the complexities of animal chatter
Zoologist Arik Kershenbaum has spent his career studying animals and how they communicate in the wild. In his book Why Animals Talk: The New Science of Animal Communication, Arik takes a deep dive into the various forms of communication, from wolf howls to gibbon songs, to look at how different species get their points across, why they do it the way they do, and what insights they provide into our own use of language.Why Animals Talk: The New Science of Animal Communication Arik Kershenbaum Penguin (2024)Music supplied by SPD/Triple Scoop Music/Getty ImagesWolf howl via NPS & MSU Acoustic Atlas/Jennifer JerrettSlowed down dolphin whistle via Arik KershenbaumHyrax song via Arik KershenbaumPileated gibbon song via Rushenb CC BY-SA 4.0 Hosted on Acast.
