A turkey's gobble can trigger a hen to ovulate
Animals
The deep, rhythmic pulse of a male turkey's throat does more than signal his presence; it physically jumpstarts a female's reproductive system within twenty-four hours.
A male turkey’s spring ritual is a full-body acoustic performance that can be heard over two kilometers away. As he fans his feathers and struts, he uses a specialized vocal organ called a syrinx to produce a low-frequency gobble. These vibrations, often hitting a deep 20-hertz frequency, act as a biological switch for any nearby hens. When a female hears this specific infrasound, her body responds by triggering ovulation, often readying her to lay an egg in less than a day.
