The video explores how different animals use sound for communication, focusing on the differences between high and low frequency sounds. It explains that while both wolf howls and frog chirps are similar in volume, their frequencies affect how far they travel. Low frequency sounds, like those of wolves and elephants, travel farther and are used for long-distance communication. High frequency sounds, used by bats and dolphins, are better for echolocation as they reflect off obstacles. The video highlights the importance of frequency in determining the effectiveness of animal communication.
