I would think that humans hear high pitches better.
As humans age, our hearing diminishes, usually affecting the higher frequencies (pitches) first. The hearing range of a young person is about 20Hz to 20KHz an the response is reasonably flat. Due to ageing factors, eardrum thickening, small hairs flattening, work noise etc., a middle aged man might have a response of 14Hz to 14KHz with 'notches' of attenuation relating to the frequency of ambient work noise. Womens hearing degrades at a slower rate than men. See also: http://www.dspguide.com/ch22/1.htm

How do donkeys hear?
This is just their way of communicating within the herd, to predators, and to humans as well. Animals talk, just as humans do it simply is in a different way. Donkeys are used for protection for herd of sheep and goats, when the donkey senses that a predator is near, it will bray. Their bray has a very high octave that will scare off the predator.

Were humans twelve feet high?
----------------------- There ought to be fossils of humans this size if they existed, particularly if they existed in the Near East, where extensive digs have been carried out. However, no evidence has ever been found of humans twelve feet high. If humans twelve feet high ever lived in settlements or towns, there ought to be some evidence of buildings such humans would be capable of living in, or artefacts that such a giant would have used, but not a fragment of evidence has ever been found. Scientifically, humans have never approached this height. The Qur'an does talk of the giant, Goliath, as does the Bible. However, there is no reason to believe that Goliath ever existed outside the holy scriptures.

What mammal makes sounds people cant hear?
Bats. They are blind and use echolocation to navigate when they are flying. They emit high pitched sounds humans ears are unable to hear. The sound frequency in a human voice is too low pitched for them to hear.
Why can't humans hear the sound of a bat?
Bats use echolocation to sense movement and their surroundings. We cannot hear the high pitched noise they emit because it is of a higher frequency than the human ear can register. There are some sounds of a bat that we can hear, but the sounds that we can't hear is because the squeaks are so high that you really need ultrasound to hear it.

Are there any sounds produced that humans find difficult to hear?
Adults cannot hear if there is a very high pitched ringing sound, but kids can hear it. +++ Sort of. Some adults may be able to hear the same high-pitched sounds as children. More accurately, the healthy ear can detect sound up to about 20kHz, but age and long-term noise exposure reduce the maximum an individual can hear.
