Summary
This program examines communication in the animal world, exploring the mechanics of sounds and their practical uses. The stunning variety in the means of production of various animal sounds, from humpback whales to the strumming of the cricket, is compared with the sounds of a 1950s jazz band. The program demonstrates how vitally important communication is in the natural world, and how animals send and receive messages.
