These sounds can travel very far through water or the ground, but it is not possible for humans to hear some of the sounds.
大象在用耳的同时,还能用脚倾听——研究大象超低频鸣叫地面传播的研究人员如是说。
Elephants may be listening with their feet as well as with their ears, say researchers who are studying how well super-low frequency elephant song moves through the ground.
这些高频声音传播得没有那么远,因此可能更好地隐藏了发出这些声音的个体,它们在自己的地面巢穴中特别容易受到捕食者的攻击。
These higher-frequency sounds do not travel as far, and so may better conceal the individuals producing them, who are especially vulnerable to predators in their ground nests.
