Seal song

I’m loving these natural synths that are coming out of the Weddell Sea, off the West coast of Antarctica. Big up the Leptonychotes weddellii.

The frequency range of the Weddell Seal’s vocalisations are apparently 80 Hz - 24 kHz. Us humans typically have ranges of 85 Hz - 155 Hz for blokes, and 165 Hz - 255 Hz for woman. It makes me think, we are just so restricted in our range, I wonder why?
