so for no reason at all, i'm trying to put together a list of zoo animals that make sounds that would fun for a group of large people to make. anyway, i'm kind of stuck and thought the combofanning board people could help.

Dr Rick Daris · « **Reply #1 on:** November 19, 2011, 09:55:42 AM »

capybaras. does anyone know what kind of sounds these animals make?

Dr Rick Daris · « **Reply #2 on:** November 19, 2011, 09:56:19 AM »

also, for the most part these should be large animals.

i don't know. what kind of noise do they make? would it be a fun noise for a lot of people to make together at the same time?

also, don't anybody worry about my previous capybara question. they are out. so also don't suggest a capybara either.

It's very nasally. Lot's of sniffing, snotting and grunting. They can't open their mouths very wide so they don't produce a lot of audible noise.

How about a whale? Would you even consider mammals?

i mean the biggest thing is that they have to be animals that you can imagine being in a zoo type setting. i have been to a lot of zoos and have never seen a whale at one so i would probably not consider a whale. i just thought of a the best one though. elephant. i mean the noise they make is easy and fun and then you also get to do the whole thing with the pretending your arm is a trunk and put it up by your face and swing it back and forth thing. it's like an animal bogo.

ok. capybaras are back on the table. we can consider them.

elephants make like a trumpet sound

i think you should mostly stick to ungulates. maybe even just the wild bovines. that way you'd have a consistent theme.

can you give me some examples? do they make fun noises or have things you can also do with your body to imitate them. i like sd's hyena idea.

you could do different horns and make wild mooing noises. also stomp feet and shake head.

moose could be an auroch or a wisent, because he's from europe. i'll check into what wild ungulates are typical of fresno.

sys · « **Reply #14 on:** November 19, 2011, 11:45:23 AM »

i just checked, there aren't any wild bovines in fresno, so upshaw will have to be the guar.

I think this has some potential

we could bring maracas and shake them for rattle snakes

hypothetically, if one of the bball players were to be a rattlesnake and i'm not saying one of them is, it'd have to be angel right? i mean it'd just have to be. again, hypothetically speaking.

also, and i'm really genuinely sorry to do this, but capybaras are back off and this time it's for good. i really just feel so stupid about the waffling there. sorry guys.

Now that I realized why you ask this I realize my silverback suggestion would be wildly inappropriate

next moap. Everyone pick an animal & simultaneously imitate it for 20 seconds in a public setting then go back to your regular business like nothing happened.

It will be the next flashmob like sensation. Record it to bring it to a planking/owling/tebowing type of level & before you know it, Davis Moore will be doing shitty car commercials using it.

you're welcome world.
