Enormous Online Library Catalogues 150,000 Animal Sounds

• popsci.com
 The Cornell Lab of Ornithology just released an online archive filled with thousands of animal noises. The archive doesn't have everything--it mostly focuses on birds--but you could still waste a whole afternoon or more sifting through the aural wonders of Earth's many species. To wit: Did you know that a singing walrus sounds like a Tommy gun followed by a tiny spaceship floating away?
