The video shows just how special marine life is. Hearing underwater is much different from on land, and this video thoroughly details how marine life has adapted to hear underwater. Very informative!
I really enjoyed this video because I learned about how both land and sea animals hear. Professor Rogers did a great job of explaining this topic in a way that was easy to understand and interesting.
I really liked this video because it gave me the knowledge to understand many issues in the news. I’ve read about the impact of sonar, noise pollution, and more on marine life. I also liked how it tied in human/land animal anatomy.
Wasn’t aware the reason that we can’t hear as well under water. This video is very good with the demonstration of the skulls. The visuals really help me understand the difference.
This is my favorite video so far. I really appreciated your use of the skulls to demonstrate the hearing process. I finally understand why I can't hear very well underwater.
I really enjoyed this video because it does a great job of explaining the way evolution has effected hearing, and helped me to understand why humans and other land mammals have so much difficultly hearing underwater. I was also really interested to find out that different mammals have different auditory structures, such as the dolphins!
I enjoyed this video because it explained the historical process and compared to ancestral animals, rather than just solely looking at the species currently present in our ecosystems. I found it personally engaging that you compared their anatomical structure and listening experience to our own as humans. I also liked that you show real-life skeletal parts so we understand the features in a more three-dimensional sense (such as the bulla and skull), rather than just through photographs or animations.
I truly enjoyed this one. I did not know how animals are able to communicate underwater. Whenever I go in a pool, I always play a game to see if my friend can understand the sentence I try and speak. It is close to impossible for me to hear what my friend is saying. great video.
I think this was a cool video because as humans, we can't hear well underwater so it was cool to learn and understand how other animals have adapted and now listen underwater.
I never even thought about why hearing underwater is so difficult for humans. This video does a great job of elaborating on the adaptations these Marine Mammals have taken to hear underwater.
It was interesting to learn about the differences between how marine animals hear under water and how land animals hear. Using the fossils helped give concrete visual evidence of what was being explained in the video, which was really helpful!
Really good topic. Hearing underwater with various functions of different parts of ears just reminds me of the knowledge of human ears many years ago on my biology class! (Xiaohui Yu)
I never thought about the evolution of hearing underwater. Some have evolved further than others. Seals have no pinna, just an open ear canal, while sea lions still have a reduced pinna. Very cool.
You can really see how the cochlea evolved in whales due to their need to use echolocation. The thicker and stiffer composition helps detect high-pitched, low-intensity sounds!

This was one of the most interesting lessons because it taught me so much about human anatomy in addition to that of marine mammals.
Really wish we had similar ears that would allow us to hear underwater and on land. Super intriguing video!

I've always wondered about the pina. That was really interesting, particularly the part about how toothed whales sense the direction of sound.
Can you please explain echolocation? ❤️❤️
._. Y u whispering? I don't have whale ears.
