  Hi ashaunaa07 – thanks for the question 🙂
  
  That’s an interesting point – I guess that animals can communicate more effectively with animals in their own species or family. When it comes to other animals, I suppose there are normally very simple messages animals try and communicate – things like “stay away from my food” , “leave me alone!”, “feed me” or “I’m happy to see you!”. I guess there are particular types of noises that lots of animals make that, although are not exactly the same, have a similar kind of sound that means that other animals get the general idea of what they mean. So, for example, I think we can guess whether the noises a dog makes are because it’s happy or angry, even though we don’t speak dog!
  
  Hope this helps, great question !
