On March 18 at 1pm, discover the film When animals talk to humans Bats that babble like human babies or wolves that coordinate in silence: the forms of animal language are astonishing. But what about a possible dialogue with humans? Since the late 1950s, researchers around the world have been trying to decipher the way animals communicate. In recent years, they have changed their approach: the aim is no longer to teach animals our language, but to decipher theirs and enter into communication with them.

After the screening, you can meet CEFE researcher Aurélie Célérier and animal behaviorist Edwin Garzon and ask them your questions live.
