The author states that both verbal and non-verbal interactions play a
fundamental part in animals’ life. Producing sounds is the most ubiquitous method
found among birds and such marine mammals as whales and dolphins to safeguard
their territories or send signals to their friends. At the same time, the utilization of
body language is prevalent in wildlife when various animals use it as a tactic to prove
their strength or to surrender. Another kind of communication found in animals is the
use of colour, which is used for numerous purposes. Some birds attract their female
counterparts by their colorful feathers, while zebras use special sets of stripes on their
bodies to be recognized by their friends and confuse their predators.Some harmless
insects use brightly-painted colours to deceive their predators about their power.

THE VARIOUS COMMUNICATIVE METHODS practiced by


animals in the wild
. Insects such as the wasps, armed with poisonous bites or stings, normally have
brightly painted bodies to remind other predators of their power. Hoverflies and
other harmless insects also make use of this fact and colored their bodies
brightly in attempts to fool their predators into thinking that they are as
dangerous and harmful as the wasps too. (374 words)
According to the writer, similar to human beings, animals can interact with each other
through both verbal and non-verbal language. The first way for animals to communicate is
singing, usually used by blackbirds to attract their opposite sex or defense their enemies.
Besides, singing voices of big size marine animals can be heard despite a hundred
kilometers distance. Another form of communication is body language. Through different
actions, while strong animals show their power, the weaker ones often express their fear. In
addition, color also plays a pivotal role in the interaction between animals. For example,
stunning feathers help male birds find their life partners, whereas black and white stripes
make zebras realize each other and escape from dangers. Moreover, the colorful bodies of
some poisonous insects warn carnivores about their power, in contrast, some powerless
counterparts take advantage of this characteristic to protect themselves.
The author depicts that the way animals communicate is varying, including both verbal and
non-verbal. As regards verbal communication, male blackbirds sing not only to attract their
female counterparts but also to warn other blackbirds off their dwellings. Similarly, big marine
mammals use their songs to interact with other mates from faraway places. Additionally,
dominant hyenas utilize body language by raising their fur whereas submissive ones crouch
their heads low and smile. As for non-verbal communication, male birds of paradise take
advantage of their gaudy colored feathers to appeal to their female equivalents while zebras
make use of their stripes to recognize their friends and hide from hazards as well. Besides,
harmful insects use their brightly painted bodies to prove their power whilst hoverflies and
other non-poisonous insects also use that, but to deceive their predators.
The author depicts a hidden story behind three main interactive methods utilized by wild
creatures. First, from terrestrial to aquatic animals deliver their messages through tuneful
voices in form of songs. Besides being outstanding tactics to attract mates, songs represent
defensive warnings against invaders. Second, most animals express thoughts through so-
called body language, which is illustrated by the gesture of raising the fur hackles to wield
power in dominant hyenas. Finally, outer appearance observed in colors serves a critical role
in communication among animals. The black and white striped coats of zebras, as an
illustration, are not only a sign of recognition but also a measure to skip out of danger. For

such tiny insects as hoverflies, disguising themself as poisonous wasps with bright-coloured
skin is a strategy to deluge predators.
