Biphonation May Function to Enhance Individual Recognition in the Dhole, Cuon alpinus
TL;DR: The results provide strong support for the hypothesis tested showing that the joining of two independent calls into a common vocalization may function to enhance individual recognition in the dhole.

A nose that roars: anatomical specializations and behavioural features of rutting male saiga.
TL;DR: The flehmen aspect in saiga involves the extensive flexible walls of the greatly enlarged nasal vestibulum and is characterized by a distinctly concave configuration of the nose region, the reverse of that observed in nasal roaring.
Pups crying bass: vocal adaptation for avoidance of age-dependent predation risk in ground squirrels?
TL;DR: The hypothesis that the obfuscation of vocal differences between juvenile and adult squirrels may represent a special adaptation of pup vocal behaviour—a form of “vocal mimicry,” resulting in imitation of adult vocal pattern to avoid infanticide and age-dependent predation risk is discussed.

The potential to encode sex, age, and individual identity in the alarm calls of three species of Marmotinae.
TL;DR: In each species, variation that allows identification of the caller’s identity was greater than variation allowing identification of age or sex, and in each species this results in relation to each species’ biology and sociality.
Vocal anatomy, tongue protrusion behaviour and the acoustics of rutting roars in free-ranging Iberian red deer stags (Cervus elaphus hispanicus)
TL;DR: This study examines the vocal anatomy and the acoustics of the rutting roars in free‐ranging male C. hispanicus and establishes a potential mechanism of simultaneous tongue protrusion and larynx retraction by applying a two‐dimensional model based on graphic reconstructions in single video frames of unrestrained animals.
