Free Mating Call Ring Tones

seal-sealion-001.jpg eNature is offering mating call ringtones, recorded by some of the best naturalists and audio engineers in the world.

Included in the tones are coyotes, tree frogs, squirrels, sea lions and monkeys, just to name a few.

Apparently very few animals have a specific sound or vocalization that's exclusively used for mating. Most DO have songs or calls they use to attract the opposite sex, warn off competitors or claim a specific territory. Some calls do all three at once, others in some combination.
