Auditory communication

Last Updated on Wed, 03 May 2023 | Elephants use a variety of sounds, described as trumpets, roars, barks, snorts, growls, and rumbles, for communication at close range to long distances. While most of the The sound language of elephants, as audible to humans, was described in subjective terms by several observers. The more recent discovery and characterization of "infrasound," along with the possibilities of playback experiments using modern gadgetry, however, has opened new avenues to study acoustic communication among elephants. Problems with studying vocalization are to first identify the individual making the call, coin an appropriate term to describe it, and then interpret the meaning of the call. A repertoire of "basic sounds," the modification of their properties (such as amplitude and resonance), the resulting sound, and its interpretation for wild Asian elephants was given by George McKay. Several of these had also been described by other observers, including G. P. Sanderson and M. Krish-nan. I have taken the liberty of reproducing McKay's repertoire with my own suggestions (table 4.2). For the wild African elephant, Joyce Poole gives a more comprehensive list of calls based on their context, such as group dynamics, distress, and sexual signaling. She observed that, of 26 calls made by adult elephants, 19 are made only by females, 3 by both sexes, and only 4 exclusively by males.

All About Elephants

Size African elephants are the largest of all land animals, adult males weighing between 1,800 and 6,300 kg (2 and 7 tons/ 4,000 and 14,000 lb.). Females are smaller, weighing between 2,700 and 3,600 kg (3 and 4 tons/ 6,000 and 8,000 lb.). Shoulder height ranges between three and four m (9.8 and 13.1 ft.). Adult male Asian elephants weigh between 1,800 and 4,500 kg (2 and 5 tons/ 4,000 and 10,000 lb.), with females weighing slightly less. Shoulder height ranges between 2 and 3.5 m (6.6 and 11.5 ft.). Trunk The elephant's trunk is an extension of the upper lip and nose. It functions for grasping, breathing, feeding, dusting, smelling, drinking, lifting, sound production/communication, defense/protection, and sensing. The trunk contains an estimated 100,000 muscles and tendons in the trunk, giving it extreme flexibility and strength. Elephant trunks are capable of expanding, contracting, and moving in a diverse array of directions. Asian elephants have one finger-like projection at the tip of the trunk and African elephants have two. These finger-like projections have many sensitive nerve endings and are capable of fine motor skills, such as grasping small and delicate objects. An adult Asian elephant can hold up to 8.5 L (2.2 gal.) of water in its trunk. Water is sprayed into the mouth for drinking and onto the back to keep cool. Elephants' trunks and keen sense of smell are used to survey the environment. The trunk is raised and waived in the air to gather scent particles....

What sound does an elephant make? The tracheal call of the African elephant is a low-frequency, short-duration "trumpet" sound.

Elephant sound What sound does an elephant make? Elephant Sound Name in english is called Trumpet. A type of vocalization found only in certain species of elephant, the trumpet call is used by these animals to communicate with other members of their herd. The sound is produced when air is forced through a large set of vocal folds (located at the base of the tongue). The folds vibrate and create a low, rumbling sound that can be heard up to three miles away. A variety of factors can affect the sound's pitch, tone and volume including age, health, stress levels and mood. Young calves are known to blow higher-pitched calls than more mature elephants. Elephants also use different trumpeting patterns depending on the situation and the herd's hierarchy. These different patterns include "staccato" calls for individuals in danger or distress, "echo" calls for groups communicating across a distance, and "concerto" calls made by several trumpeters simultaneously during social gatherings. The elephant sound can be us...
