This is technology in its infant stages but on an interesting track. Humans have lost the ability to move their ears the way animals do in response to
their environment. We have the same muscles in and around the ear, but they have atrophied over time. Some people can wiggle their ears a little...
Animals, on the other hand, depend highly on those 'signals' sent and received by each other in a pack of wolves or lions, say. Subtleties we can
hardly recognize are gold to them when determining moods or warnings or instructions. I love watching a cats or dogs ears when you talk to them or
when they are "thinking" or listening to sounds we can't hear anymore. There is a big dictionary there that man is only beginning to translate.
