Cries In the Wild explores the stunning myriad of sounds to be found throughout the animal kingdom and seeks to explain how different animals produce them.From the haunting notes of a whale traveling deep through the ocean, to the percussive warning of a rattle snake's tail, to the seductive courtship of the male ostrich.Communication is essential in the natural world and often means the difference between life and death.In many cases the way animals produce sounds parallels that of man made instruments.These parallels are explained and illustrated by imaginative wildlife photography of animals creating sounds.Stylized graphics are integrated into the footage to help explain the mechanics of sound production.
