Human fascination with animals dates back to our earliest known history - but just how close are we to breaking the communication barrier? This episode features an animal menagerie, as we examine the communication methods of prairie dogs, sea creatures and more! We’re even learning about a fascinating ape, who’s rumoured to have learnt American Sign Language... As always, we’ll also be asking one of the leading experts on animal communication, Professor Barbara King, to answer our question: 'will we ever talk to animals?’
