Which species of animal produces the loudest sound?

Question

Which species of animal produces the loudest sound?

Answer 1

I'm not sure, but I can tell you that the Macaws and Chimpanzees are "incredibly" loud.  Because of their screaming in the zoo, I have developed Tinitis in both ears from working there with them.  The pitch and intensity is unbelievable.

Answer 2

I think elephants communicate on such a low frequency that humans can't hear it. I do not know if it is the loudest sound an animal produces though ... the blue whale makes very loud sound too. With the help of the water (sound travels faster in water than air) blue whales can send their song many kilometers!

I hope this helps!

Answer 3

BLUE WHALE is the species which produces the loudest sound. The frequency of its sound is still unknown.

Answer 4

If you'd ever heard my wife, you wouldn't have to ask.

Answer 5

Blue whales are the loudest animals on Earth!

Their call reaches levels up to 188 decibels. This low-frequency whistle can be heard for hundreds of miles. The blue whale is louder than a jet, which reaches only 140 decibels! Human shouting is 70 decibels; sounds over 120 decibels are painful to human ears.
