Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

An acoustic analysis of purring in the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) and in the domestic cat (Felis catus) 


The cheetah (Caine) was a male, 7 years old at the time of the recording (11 December 2009) and weighing 67.5 kilos (i.e. an exceptionally big cheetah). He was recorded in his enclosure at Dell Cheetah Centre, next to his shelter, in a setting very familiar to the animal. Caine is a constant purrer, and also a very loud purrer, and can easily be heard at a distance of more than 40 meters in an outdoor setting with background noises. Video duration was 1m55s. Film captures and a detailed description of the data collection are given above in Plate 1.
