Abstract/Description: | Sound is one of the most important means of conveying information over long distances as well as in close vicinity.Utterance of animals becomes unique for them when they communicate their individuality or physiological state to theother co species partner. Present study was based on hypothesis of discrimination of individual identity through vocalsignal of lactating karan fries (KF) cows. For this 25 KF cows were selected for recording of their vocal signal. Vocal callwas recorded after separation of animal from their living herd in the morning hours. Acoustic features of vocalization ofindividual cow were extracted with the help of PRAAT acoustic analysis software. Analysis of all acoustic features extractedfrom 250 voice samples of 25 KF cows revealed that differences for amplitude, Total energy, pitch, intensity, formants,pulse, periods, unvoiced frames, voice breaks, jitter, shimmer, mean noise/harmonic ratio and mean harmonic/noise ratiowere found highly significant (p < 0.001). Out of these only few acoustic features viz. pulse, pitch, jitter, shimmer, voicebreak and formants were observed to have significant (p<0.05) difference between each and every individual KF cow.Among these feature formants frequency of every individual cow had a unique pattern in the distribution of frequencycontour in their vocal spectrogram. Study concluded that vocal signal of KF cow have some unique feature at individuallevel, by which cow identification could be made |
