This open-access book offers a profound exploration of the acoustic world of animals. Organized into nine chapters by taxonomy—invertebrates, insects, amphibians, reptiles, fishes, birds, and mammals (subterranean, terrestrial, and marine)—it delves into sound production, sound reception, sound function, and the impacts of noise on these creatures. As the second volume of Exploring Animal Behavior Through Sound, it builds upon the bioacoustic concepts and methodologies established in the first volume. By attuning ourselves to the sounds of nature, we can gain valuable insights into animal behavior, distribution, and demographics, as well as their habitat |
