Elephants produce low-frequency sounds for long-distance communication. These sounds can travel over several kilometers and enable elephants to communicate with each other across vast distances, especially in dense forest or savannah environments where visibility is limited. The low-frequency nature of these sounds allows them to penetrate through obstacles and background noise more effectively than higher frequencies.

What sounds do elephants make?

Elephants make a number of sounds. They make specific sounds related to sex and danger which we can hear and understand. However, they have a much larger number of sounds which are too low in frequency (infra sound) for our ears to hear which is propagated via the elephant's legs and feet through the ground over great distances. The most common sound (that we can hear) that elephants make is called trumpeting. We can also hear them make a low rumbling noise. Examples of this can be heard by clicking on the related link.

Can elephants talk to each other by making sounds called tummy rumbles?

Elephants have a wide variety of noises, including trumpeting with their trunks, but also make low rumbling sounds with their vocal cords (not their "tummy") that are subsonic and can travel for miles through the ground (they're seismic"). The sounds can be heard by other, distant, elephants through their feet and trunks. These low frequency noises are called 'infrasound'.


Can elephants communicate over long distances?

Yes, elephants can communicate over long distances through infrasound, which are low-frequency vocalizations that can travel through the ground and be detected by other elephants many miles away. This form of communication allows elephants to stay in touch with each other and coordinate their movements, especially during migrations or in search of resources.

How far away can an elephant talk with other elephants?

A surprisingly long distance as elephants are able to generate very low frequency sounds (i.e. infrasonic, frequencies that humans cannot hear at all) that can travel through the ground for many tens of miles and still be heard by other elephants.


Why do elephants need to hear better then other animals?

elephants need to hear better because they communicate* in a lower frequency which means we cant hear them communicate* but they need better ears so they can hear each other *they communicate in low frequency drone's like bird tweeting except they are a lot lower and we cant hear them


What will the pitch be if the frequency is low?

Low frequency = low pitch = long waves
