    as animals that rely on sound to survive one would expect them to be able to recognise individual voices.

          Penguins and seals seem to be good at this also.

            I'm sure the pentagon will somehow use this technic to wage war...too bad...as we too can put a combination of bells on a pet's collar, and listen with the microphone of a computer...that too increases the magnitude by mulitiplying the sound, times an X amount to recognize indipendently our pet and it's location. Sound works like doplar radar does...it travels the speed of sound then returns after a period of time that relates the total distance. LOLn Anyone can do this...shoot and arrow and when the arrow hits the target...a mic there and a mic near-by records the speed of the arrow's sound at impact....this allows cameras too to record the sight...in a similar way.
