The Organ of Sound

The real hearing apparatus Of all
creatures is inside the skull, the part
which we, call 'the ear" being merely
an enlarged fold Of skin which helps
US to collect sounds. Birds and frogs
have no outside ear. The hearing hole
In birds, lizards and frogs is Just
little behind each eye and not far
from the corners of the mouth or
beak. The frog has middle ear, be-
sides. so that sounds can be conducted
to special nerve, which is its real
organ of hearing.
