About this sound
Standing on the Historic Cabin front porch, a variety of animals man be seen. Beyond the fascinating mammals and reptiles at Jewel Cave National Monument, this stop allows us to look back through human history as well.
Why parks record sound
The NPS Natural Sounds and Night Skies Division monitors soundscapes in parks across the United States. Natural quiet is treated as a resource to protect, like clean air or dark skies: noise from aircraft, vehicles and machinery can mask animal communication and change the experience of a place.
