The audial semiotic component favours the process identification of success or failure of hunting and the analysis of the situation of hunting. Thus, listening to the voice of a hound a hunter may find out if a hound is successful, if it has reached an animal, if it is physically strong and healthy, or injured by an animal. All this knowledge helps him orient and plan his actions while hunting.
