The best known sound of an elephant is called a "Trumpet." Trumpeting is done during times of excitement, aggression, or distress. It can be used as a warning or caution.
The onomatopoeia spelling is rarely used, the versions "prrumph," "ahrunngh," and "hrrannhhh" being interchangeable for other animals, depending on the tone.
Elephants also roar, squeal, bellow, and rumble. These sounds can signify injury, be threatening, or tell another elephant they are in the mood for some loving.
Some elephant sounds are infrasonic and can be heard by other elephants for up to six miles.
It is believed that elephant's have a large vocabulary all of their own.
