“…Similar subtle modulation in voices might be expected in courtship contexts. In fact, there is evidence of vocal differences between speech directed towards romantic partners and same-sex friends which can be detected by listeners (Farley, Hughes, & LaFayette, 2013), and intentional voice manipulations make female voices, but not male voices, sound more attractive (Hughes, Mogilski, & Harrison, 2013; see also Fraccaro et al, 2013). Indeed, such modulations occur in other species including frogs (Ryan, 1980), koalas, Phascolarctos cinereus (Charlton, Ellis, Brumm, Nilsson, & Fitch, 2012), fallow deer, Dama dama (Charlton & Reby, 2011), red deer, Cervus elaphus (Reby et al, 2005;Reby, Charlton, Locatelli, & McComb, 2010), and birds.…”
