Sperm whales can modulate their clicks in a way that is similar to how humans speak, according to scientists.
These mammals are known to be sociable and are often spotted in groups – known as pods – of 15 to 20.
They communicate with each other by producing a series of rhythmic clicks, known as codas.
The researchers said that while communication plays a vital role in complex social behaviours in humans, not much is known about the vocalisations of sperm whales.
