Human speech is, perhaps, the ultimate form of communication.
There are other forms of communication in the animal kingdom that have been studied neural anatomically or physiologically. That is, you will need to define communication so that it is applicable to your example. This again, will require that you define what a language is. In defining communication and language, I am not asking you to be an expert in these topics, but rather to use your own ideas about what these two concepts mean.
