In nature there's few things laying around that resonate particularly well.
- maybewhenthesun 8mo agoScratch a thin pointy branch across e rock -> sharp high noise. Thump a round club/log against a rock -> dull bump noise
- IsTom 8mo agoThump two round rocks together -> sharp noise Thump pointy branch against a tree -> dull noise And chickens aren't using tools.
- blurbleblurble 8mo agoThey're scratching for gizzard stones and food though, with their built-in beak, fwiw
- sixsevenrot 8mo agoI challenge you to find two objects of a similar size and cut them into shapes that would produce a sharper sound for the rounder object. In your example it's obviously the round tree trunk that produces the dull sound.
- magneticnorth 8mo agoHollow things are common, and of interest to many animals. If I thump a log and it makes a noise like it has a hollow space (low tones), then it may contain an animal nest or a beehive & honey, or it may be something I could use as a box or basket or shelter.
- ASalazarMX 8mo agoMaybe animal sounds count? Warning sounds tend to be loud, sharp, and high-pitched; and when ignored, they might end with more material sharp things in your skin. I can't recall any animal with a soft warning sound.
