Some animals sing (birds, whales) and plenty of animals make sounds together at roughly the same time (wolves howling, prairie dogs yelling at threats). Are there animals that harmonize? Or animals that make sound that’s rhythmically coordinated, like has a time signature?

Guess I’m asking about more finely coordinated sounds. It’s something that’s pretty neat about human music.

    Deer are talking to each other with slight clicks from their hooves.

    I don’t know, but I guess that it has a certain rhythm, otherwise I could not imagine how it carries much information.
