How do animals talk?
How do animals talk to each other? Well ... in many ways, they talk just like we do. They make sounds, sing, dance, and use body language. Let's look at a few examples.
Have you ever heard a whale singing? Whale songs are beautiful—they are also very useful. Whales talk to each other through their songs. In fact, whales talk to each other mostly through sound. They sing and make different sounds to find each other, to tell each other about dangers, and much more.
Do you know that honeybees love to dance? Honeybees talk by dancing. When a honeybee finds a nice flower, it goes back home and does a dance for the other honeybees. This dance tells everyone where the flower is!
What about fireflies? Fireflies have small lights on their bodies. They can turn these lights on and off whenever they want to. To talk to each other, fireflies turn their lights on and off a number of times. This works as a language.
There are many other ways to talk to each other in the animal world. Next time you see an animal, try to find out what it is saying!
