He said that animals, and particularly cattle, see and hear differently than humans. They have almost panoramic vision, they have good distance vision, see color and see up and down. But they also prefer to move towards lighted areas as opposed to darker areas with more shadows.
Cattle also hear low volume and higher frequency sounds better than humans.

They should be designed to fit the farm and the size and number of animals that will be handled. It is the quickest, safest and easiest way to get the job done.
