Elephants primarily communicate using low-frequency sounds called infrasound. These sounds can travel long distances, allowing elephants to communicate with others that are several kilometers away. They also use visual signals, touch, and other vocalizations.
Growls in their basic form are used for short-distance communication. During mild arousal, growls resonate in the trunk and become rumbles while for long-distance communication, they escalate into roars. Low-frequency growls are infrasonic and made in many contexts. Squeaks come in two forms; chirpings and trumpets.
