Animals react to secret sounds from plants, say scientists

A recent study suggests that animals can detect and respond to secret sounds emitted by plants. Researchers found that a variety of animals, including mice, caterpillars, and bees, exhibit behavioral changes when exposed to these inaudible plant sounds. The study indicates that plants may communicate with animals through these ultrasonic vibrations, which are produced as a byproduct of various biological processes. The researchers believe this could be part of a previously unknown ecosystem, where plants and animals interact in ways that have not been fully understood. The findings challenge the traditional view of plants as passive organisms and suggest a more complex and interconnected relationship between the plant and animal kingdoms. While further research is needed to fully understand this phenomenon, the study opens up new avenues for exploring the hidden world of plant-animal interactions.
