    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Newly hatched chicks and ducklings respond to their mother's call before birth. Aural stimulation with species-specific maternal calls increased fetal vocalization and bill-clapping rates.

    Area of Science:

    • Embryonic development
    • Animal behavior
    • Bioacoustics

    Background:

    • Prenatal auditory learning is crucial for species recognition and survival.
    • Avian fetuses exhibit sensory capabilities prior to hatching.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the impact of species-specific maternal calls on fetal behavior in chickens and ducks.
    • To determine if prenatal auditory stimulation influences pre-hatching activities.

    Main Methods:

    • Recording fetal activity (bill-clapping and vocalization) inside the egg.
    • Aurally stimulating fetuses with maternal calls of their own species.
    • Comparing activity rates before and after auditory stimulation.

    Main Results:

    • Fetal bill-clapping and vocalization rates significantly increased upon hearing the maternal call.
    • This response was observed in both chick and duck fetuses.
    • The effect was noted on the day before hatching.

    Conclusions:

    • Avian fetuses can perceive and respond to species-specific maternal calls.
    • Auditory imprinting may begin prenatally, influencing post-hatching behavior.
    • This study highlights the importance of prenatal auditory environment for avian development.
