Whereas most races are content to evolve slowly and carefully over thousands of generations, discarding a prehensile toe here, nervously hazarding another nostril there, the Haggunenons would have done for Charles Darwin what a squadron of Arcturan Stunt Apples would have done for Sir Isaac Newton.

As clearly demonstrated by the number of downvotes you are receiving, you well-reasoning human.
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
How have you done this? These are great!

I look around to see if anything better comes along, but so far, I’ve not seen anything that gets close to AIO for me. It is so customizable, everything on one vertical scrollable screen, email, notifications, calendar, apps, weather. I absolutely love it!
HaggunenonsOPMto Digital Bioacoustics•Interspecies Communication: Talking to Your Dog Will Soon Be a Possibility5·9 months agoI think most people would be really surprised by what has already been uncovered. For example, prairie dogs have had their communication decoded to the point where we can identify adjectives, nouns, and verbs. We can tell if a prairie dog is seeing a person in a red shirt or a person in a white shirt.

HaggunenonsOPMto Digital Bioacoustics•Scientists figure out the elephant word for "let's go"1·9 months agoThat’s interesting, I was always taught that the hearing range of humans was 20hz-20kHz. Is it more of a body vibration or actually hearing at 10hz?
HaggunenonsOPMto Digital Bioacoustics•Scientists figure out the elephant word for "let's go"61·9 months agoI don’t think an audio file would do much good unless you are an elephant or a similarly sized(with. Few exceptions) animal. It’s infrasonic, so the only way to hear it would be to shift it up to our hearing range which would be a different sound. Elephants do make sounds we can hear, of course, but a lot of their communication is super long distance, which is really only realisticly doable with extremely low sounds.

HaggunenonsOPMto Digital Bioacoustics•Chimps take turns while chatting, just like humans1·9 months agoMy understanding is that 14% of the time that a chimp made a gesture to another chimp, there was a gesture used as a response. The result of this would be that there are not many long conversations happening with gestures, but like the paper said, they did see one that went on for 7 rounds.
Many animals do use call and response in communication, but long back and forth conversations are quite rare. Whales of some species have especially long back and forth communications. Sometimes, even for over an hour at a time, they will float near the surface and go back and forth, making sounds to each other. There was even a study earlier this year where humans had a 10+ minute back and forth with a humpback whale named “Twain”. The conversation was essentially both sides going back and forth, claiming to be Twain.
Sperm whales also have long, distinct back and forth conversations. They have even been found to have certain types of calls that, when made by the dominant individual, indicate that the conversation is coming to an end. They have not decoded the meanings of their calls yet, but they have very complex structures that resemble human language in many ways. They have small units that are location/tribe dependent(think accents) that are combined into larger units that follow fairly predictable rules.

HaggunenonsOPMto Digital Bioacoustics•How Your Brain Knows if a Sound Is Music or Speech1·10 months agoMaybe you would enjoy this radiolab podcast if you haven’t heard it before.
We’ll kick off the chase with Diana Deutsch, a professor specializing in the psychology of music, who could extract song out even the most monotonous of drones. (Think Ben Stein in Ferris Bueller. Bueller … Bueller …)
For those of us who have trouble staying in tune when we sing, Deutsch has some exciting news—the problem might not be your ears, but your language. She tells us about tone languages such as Mandarin and Vietnamese which rely on pitch to convey the meaning of a word. Turns out, speakers of tone languages are exponentially more inclined to have absolute—aka ‘perfect’—pitch. And, nope, English isn’t one of them.
Thank You!
