Lions are sending coded messages in their roars, and AI can finally hear what we can’t

Machine learning is revolutionizing wildlife research by enabling accurate classification of lion roars. New studies identify distinct vocal phases and individual lion signatures using acoustic metrics, offering non-invasive population monitoring and conservation insights. This technology decodes the complex language of lions, enhancing our understanding of their social lives and protection.
