The study of animal communication
The study of animal communication explores how animals convey information to each other through sounds, gestures, scents, and body language. It helps us understand how they coordinate activities like finding food, warning about danger, or caring for their young. Researchers examine the signals animals use, how they interpret these signals, and what they communicate. This field reveals the complexity of animal behaviors and the ways they interact within their environments, offering insights into their social structures, survival strategies, and evolutionary adaptations.
