Animals receive communication signals and other information about the outside world through the physical senses of sight, hearing and touch, and the chemical senses of smell and taste.

Relatively few animals, mainly primates, convey information using a combination of different signals - gestures, body movements and sounds, which expands the capabilities of their “vocabulary”.

The higher the position of an animal in the evolutionary hierarchy, the more complex its sense organs and the more perfect its biocommunication apparatus.

Animal vocal signals can be very diverse and reflect not only aggression or play.

Thus, pet owners can recognize the emotions of their pet in meowing and whining, and orangutans are able to tell their fellow tribesmen about the events that have occurred.
