Shrieks and Shouts - Olympic Marmots Master the Art of Alpine Communication!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we catch a glimpse of the charismatic Olympic Marmot, showcasing its unique vocal talents in the stunning alpine area of Olympic National Park. Known for their distinct warning calls, these furry creatures prove that they're more than just whistlers – they can shriek with style! With mouths wide open and teeth on display, it seems like these marmots are having quite the intense conversation. Are they discussing their latest mountain conquest or simply exchanging gossip about other park residents? We may never know for sure, but one thing is certain – their communication skills are far from ordinary. As these adorable rodents scream out into the wilderness, it's clear that they take protection seriously. Their shrill screams serve as a powerful warning to potential dangers lurking nearby. Whether it's an approaching predator or an overzealous tourist getting too close for comfort, these marmots aren't afraid to make some noise. So next time you find yourself exploring the picturesque landscapes of Washington's Olympic Mountains, keep your ears perked up for those unmistakable marmot shrieks echoing through the valleys. And if you happen to capture a photo as remarkable as Tom and Pat Leeson did here, remember to appreciate not only nature's beauty but also its quirky ways of communication!
