, an iconic African megaherbivore for which little is known about social communication, uses vocal recognition to manage relationships between territorial groups.
“We found that the vocalizations of a stranger individual induced a stronger behavioral response than those produced by individuals from either the same or a neighboring group,” said, a researcher with the Equipe de Neuro-Ethologie Sensorielle ENES/CRNL at the University of Saint-Etienne and the Institut Universitaire de France.
