CONT

On parle généralement de «biophonie» […] pour qualifier l'ensemble des sons produits par les êtres vivants d'un écosystème… à l'exception des humains. La biophonie rassemble ainsi les cris et chants des animaux, auxquels s'ajoutent parfois les bruits divers du corps sans rôle communicationnel (respiration, mastication et autres).
