Some animals sing (birds, whales) and plenty of animals make sounds together at roughly the same time (wolves howling, prairie dogs yelling at threats). Are there animals that harmonize? Or animals that make sound that’s rhythmically coordinated, like has a time signature?
Guess I’m asking about more finely coordinated sounds. It’s something that’s pretty neat about human music.
I don’t know that it’s technically harmonization, but sometimes when wolves howl at the same time, they will each choose a different pitch. Presumably it’s so the group sounds like it has as many individuals as possible.
Or cause it’s fucking dope
If it’s rained in the late afternoon then stops by nighttime, the frogs in the marshland across the street seem to synchronize their songs and get very very loud.
I’ve heard katydids do the same thing at night after very hot days.
Deer are talking to each other with slight clicks from their hooves.
I don’t know, but I guess that it has a certain rhythm, otherwise I could not imagine how it carries much information.
Get every animal you can think of and make an orchestra out of them. It may not sound that amazing but it sure is a pretty cool idea.
Just be careful, some of them might feed on you. So… avoid those ones.
My first thought would be whales. No idea if they m correct though
