  13. high pitch frog Rare Chinese frog uses ultrasonic communication 1 hour, 28 minutes ago LONDON (Reuters) - Bats, whales and dolphins use it to communicate. Baby rodents call their mothers with it and now a rare Chinese frog has shown it can hear and respond to ultrasounds, scientists said on Wednesday. The frog, Amolops tormotus, is the first non-mammalian species known to use the ultra-high frequencies that humans cannot hear. It comes in handy to be heard above the pounding waterfalls and streams in the mountainous region of east-central China where Amolops tormotus, which is known as the concave-eared torrent frog, lives. "Nature has a way of evolving mechanisms to facilitate communication in very adverse situations," said Professor Albert Feng of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. "One way is to shift the frequencies beyond the spectrum of the background noise. Mammals such as bats, whales and dolphins do this, and use ultrasound for their sonar system and communication." But until now it was not known that some frogs were able to use ultrasound. Kraig Adler, a biologist at Cornell University in New York, first noticed the frog with no external eardrums while surveying amphibians in China. He told Feng, an auditory neuroscientist who studies frogs and bats, about his find. Feng and his colleagues conducted tests on the frogs to determine whether they could hear and respond to ultrasounds. "Now we are getting a better understanding of why their ear drums are recessed," said Feng, who reported his findings in the journal Nature. "Thin eardrums are needed for detection of ultrasound. Recessed ears shorten the path between eardrums and the ear, enabling the transmission to the ears," he added in a statement. Ultrasounds are high-pitched sounds of more than 20 kilohertz (kHz) frequency -- much higher than the frequency most birds, reptiles and amphibians can hear.

    29 + 6 is a rocking good b-day! it's coming up quick for me damn i'm getting old. pretty soon, i'm going to need an archeologist to dust me off and get me out of bed in the morning.
  24. clearly you're still in the delirious phase of early long term sleep deprevation every year is better than the last. i'm not sure i'll be saying that with the upcoming teenage years but we'll see. my kid's pretty great the best advice i received as a new parent "take too many pictures. they change faster than you can imagine"
  25. alright-- i want to know how many of you are a) in one of the mounties pics or b) friends/related to one of the people in the pics....hmmmm? fess up!
