THE ROARING OF A LION? WHO ON EARTH IS MAKING SUCH A NOISE IN OUR FORESTS? NO, IT’S NOT A LION, ALTHOUGH IT MIGHT SOUND LIKE ONE. CAN YOU GUESS WHAT ANIMAL IT IS? THIS IS THE SOUND OF A STAG DURING THE MATING SEASON. HUNTERS IMITATE THE DIFFERENT SOUNDS STAGS MAKE DURING RUTTING. THEY EVEN HOLD COMPETITIONS. LISTEN TO TWO OF THEM AND TRY TO WORK OUT WHAT THE MESSAGE IS. TWO STAGS SPARRING. RUTTING OF A DOMINANT STAG WITH A HERD OF DOES. TO IMITATE THE SOUNDS OF STAGS RUTTING, HUNTERS USE HORNS AND SPECIAL INSTRUMENTS THAT YOU CAN SEE IN THE TECHNICAL MUSEUM OF SLOVENIA. LET THE WORK BE HEARD THE ROARING OF A LION?
