What Animals Can Sing Besides Birds?

What Animals Can Sing Besides Birds?

Although some birds don’t sing, such as vultures, storks, cedar waxwing, and the females of many species, birds are the best singers in the animal kingdom.

Other than birds, many animals can sing. Mammals that can sing include whales, mice, Mexican free-tailed bats, and antelope squirrels. Cold-blooded animals that can sing include cicadas, crickets, katydids, tree frogs, and toadfish.

Hoomans are animals, too!

Hold on, now birds might not be the best singers in the animal kingdom. We often forget the fact that the human being is one of the four great apes of the family Hominidae together with the orangutans, chimpanzees, and my favorite gorillas. Yay, we humans are animals. And, we sing!

What would I do if I didn’t choose to become a zoologist?

Probably music. That’s been my answer every time I was asked this. But I never had the time earlier in my life to do music until recently.

Here is the first song that I made with a few of my friends all by ourselves

Starting with covers but we are working on our own original songs where I’ll try to express my thoughts about life, animals, and nature in them!
