Question

How do humans and other animals communicate with each other? Of course, humans
communicate verbally by talking and making other sounds like laughing. Most other
mammals also communicate by making sounds as well. Sophisticated intelligent mammals,
especially dolphins and whales, possess well-developed verbal skills and communicate with
high-pitched sounds that carry through the water. Researchers are actively working on
interpreting these sounds in order to understand dolphin and whale language. Verbal
communication is accompanied by non-verbal body language that also conveys meaning and
emotion. Body language includes facial expression, posture, position of the arms and many
other cues that help in understanding the meaning of verbal communication. In the absence
of verbal communication, body language can be sufficient to convey meaning. Sometimes
merely a stern look from Mom or Dad or a teacher, lets you know that you are not behaving
properly; no words are necessary!
