5 Cara Hewan Membuat Suara (Manusia Cuma 1)

Burung bernyanyi dua lagu sekaligus dari satu tenggorokan. Tonggeret memekakkan telinga 120 desibel dengan menekan perutnya seperti tutup kaleng. Jangkrik tanah membangun studio akustik bawah tanah. Ikan midshipman bersenandung semalaman dengan otot tercepat di seluruh vertebrata. Dan gajah mengirim pesan lewat tanah — didengar dengan kaki. Manusia? Dua lipatan kecil di tenggorokan. Satu mekanisme. Selesai. Tapi ternyata, satu mekanisme itu menghasilkan sesuatu yang nggak dimiliki satupun hewan di Bumi. 📚 Sumber 1. Elemans, C.P.H. (2014).
