WASHINGTON - Researchers from Northern Arizona University, Con Slobodchikoff said that computers can helping people to can communicate with animals.
Humans try to talk with animals. Some researchers have been tried to make a device that allows humans to can communicate with pets well as farm animals.
Con Slobodchikoff, who is professor emeritus of animal behavior research and attempted to 'solve the code' animal communication. Although, Slobodchikoff has been studying ways to communicate or signal of all species, he focus on communication with prairie dogs.

According to him, prairie dogs communicating with the most sophisticated way. "This is the most sophisticated animal language is ever translated," he said.
This animal reportedly has phonemes (the smallest units of sound) that resemble words. Thus, the animal can combine to form a call that resembles a series of sentences. "They have a social chat," he added. They can distinguish between the types of predators that are around it, such as coyotes and humans.
Besides it, prairie dogs can develop a warning that is capable determine the size and color of predators. Slobodchikoff rely on statistical analysis of alarm calls that are produced one of the species, ie Gunnison prairie dog.

With these techniques, he knows what happened to the animal and its condition. "I personally think that whales and dolphins and apes (also) have a very sophisticated language," he said.
However, time This researchers still must design some experiments that allows humans to can translate the language of animals. Studying the dolphins or whales have constraints because these animals are below sea level.
"We can hear their vocalizations, but we're not so sure that we understand the context in which it is communicated," he explained. While her research on the pasture dog language, can reveal the social systems that exist in the lives of these animals.
With this research, himself hopes can create a tool to can translate the language of animals. Besides it, allows humans to can communicating with animals it.
