A tiny fish from Myanmar is able to scream at 140dB

Due to the peculiarities of the fish’s ‘voice’, the sound does not spread far, the maximum volume is observed at a distance of its body length. This partly explains why the amazing creature has not been noticed before. Only males make sounds – presumably for acoustic communication. These fish live in murky water and cannot rely on sight, which is why evolution has endowed them with this unusual type of communication.
