Elephants possess a fascinating ability to communicate using infrasonic vocalizations, which occur at frequencies below the range of human hearing. This unique form of communication allows them to convey information over long distances, engage with herd members, and respond to various stimuli. Such infrasonic sounds play a crucial role in their social interactions and environmental awareness. Understanding these vocalizations not only enriches our knowledge of elephant behavior but also highlights the importance of preserving their habitats to ensure their continued survival.
