Acoustic Atlas
- ... that the Acoustic Atlas at Montana State University Library helped create a public domain archive of sounds from Yellowstone National Park? Source: "In 2013, Yellowstone National Park partnered with the Acoustic Atlas at Montana State University to make a collection of public domain sounds from all around the park available online." HuffPost, 2017
- ALT1: ... that the Montana State University Library's Acoustic Atlas aims to archive the dialects of birds from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem? Source: "The MSU site hosts a variety of sounds made by wildlife...'Even birds will sing in dialects. So if you have a recording of a white-crowned sparrow, that species can have a different sound signature only a mile away. So even if you make one recording of a white-crowned sparrow, you’re not going to have all of the sounds it makes.'" State Journal-Register, 2013
- ALT2: ... that the Acoustic Atlas includes sounds made by ants being held between a volunteer's teeth? Source: "It also contains interviews, such as the odd one with Howard Spangler explaining how he has learned to record ant sounds by holding the insects gently between his teeth." Researchers recording the sounds of Yellowstone

- Thank you! I'm not sure though whether Acoustic Atlas includes the actual ant sounds that the person recorded, since the newspaper article just describes the interview with the person about it. Dreamyshade (talk) 04:19, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
What a fun read, and what a great idea. For the purposes of DYK, this is long enough, new enough (moved to mainspace on 29 July), well referenced, and free from copyvio. All of the hooks are interesting and cited; I personally prefer ALT2 and ALT0. Dreamyshade, it appears that you have more than 5 previous DYK credits which means you need to provide a QPQ review (i.e. review another nomination) for this nomination to proceed. 97198 (talk) 10:28, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
