Sounds produced by humans can also interfere with the ability of animals to communicate. Such interference can inhibit an animaPs ability to protect itself, to find food, and to live a normal life. For example, ships emit low-frequency sounds that interfere with whale communications. Other human noises can frighten whales away from their normal migration routes. In the desert, kangaroo rats Dipodomys spp.) exposed to the roar of a dune buggy lose their ability to hear snakes approaching. Japanese quail (Coturnix Coturnix Japonicd) have to call much louder than usual when they live in a noisy environment. Sooty terns (Sterna fuse at a) have been observed to abandon their nests when jets create sonic booms. Intense bursts of noise have also caused condors (Gymnogyps californianus) to abandon their nests.
