Description

Imagine if every time you lost your hearing after a loud concert or a construction site next door, your ears simply fixed themselves. Sounds like science fiction, right? Well… birds can actually do this.

Hi, I’m Janet Marlow, sound behaviorist and founder of Pet Acoustics. In this episode of We’re All Ears, we’re going to step into the world of birds—how they hear, why their ears are so different, and the superpower they have that we humans can only dream of: regenerating hearing.
By the end, you’ll not only know more about your feathered neighbors, but you’ll also see how studying them could shape the future of hearing health—for pets, for people, and for our understanding of sound itself.
