ANIMALS YOU DID NOT KNOW THAT SING
Since an early age , we have seen people gushing about the soulful melodies of nightingales and other exotic birds . But there are numerous other animals who sing their own sweet songs and radiate their brilliance in the animal kingdom . Here are some animals that stand out for their vocalisations which can be to attract mates , communication , and to even mark their territories
1Humpback Whales
Whales are very smart creatures who sing to communicate with each other and even to attract a mate . Since the power of sight and smell are very limited in water , humpback whales use this vocalisation in order to navigate their way across the dense ocean . They are also known as ‘ inveterate composers ’ since the sounds they produce mimic those of human compositions . These whale songs are well-documented and researched , and you can listen to them on your phone .
