New research has revealed elephants communicate using a secret language which humans cannot hear
According to Daily Mail report, Researchers at San Diego Zoo have been monitoring the conversations between a herd of African elephants communicate using a secret language which humans cannot hear. They assumed that when these elephants give special sounds. They communicate with the rest of the herd. The team, led by Dr Matt Anderson, decided to analyse these calls in an attempt to unravel what the animals were saying to each other. He put leather collar with a chin microphone to observe their movements and sounds
Anderson said: the female elephants were using a “secret language” while communicating with other in the herd. That was after observation for a 24-hour period each week for 10 weeks. Pregnant elephants were using low frequency communication to tell the rest of the herd when they were about to give birth. This would warn the other elephants to look out for predators that could harm the newborn. Anderson said: 'We thought elephants had a certain vocabulary, but we are finding it is much larger than anyone realized. The team plan to build up a catalogue of elephant sounds as part of the research
