Animal Sound Recordings Collection: A Treasure Trove of Wildlife Sounds for Research and Learning

Explore over 40,000 animal sound recordings of insects, amphibians, mammals, and birds at blb.osu.edu. Mainly student-digitized recordings contain valuable information, with most specimens georeferenced for various websites to use. Additionally, the collection at tetrapods.osu.edu boasts over 38,000 specimens, including amphibians, reptiles, mammals, and birds, but lacks georeferencing data. Volunteers and students input data, and location information is parsed for easy access.
