Animals of all shapes and sizes use their own calls, whistles, and noises to communicate with each other. While we tend to associate a single sound with a particular animal, every animal produces a multitude of sounds that we could not even imagine. Here are 8 animal sounds you probably did not expect:
1. Otter
Otters are typically water-dwelling animals with a splendid water-repellent fur that keeps them insulated. But in this case they resemble meerkats...
2. Eagle
Most people are familiar with the typical Hollywood shriek of an eagle but this is what they sound like when calling to each other...
3. Peacock
So THIS is what a peacock sounds like...
4. Seal
Forget screaming goats…seals are LOUD. And they yell a lot.
5. Owl
While many people associate owls with a hooting or screeching sound, they are also capable of many other noises. Like the Eastern screech owl, which sounds like an alien spaceship landing...
6. Cheetah
According to this video’s description, a cheetah’s calls are higher pitched so that they don’t attract predators, like their bigger cousin the lion...
7. Penguins
Like one comment says: all they’re missing are the little party hats.
8. Kakapo
The kakapo is a large flightless parrot native to New Zealand whose mating calls sound like lightsabers.
