Researchers recreate and describe “eerie” animal calls thought to have echoed across the Jurassic landscape about 165 million years ago. The work focuses on sounds associated with Jurassic grasslands, steppes, and woodlands and presents them as reconstructions of ancient vocalizations.

Both outlets describe the same central claim: scientists use evidence to recreate the calls rather than playing a direct audio recording. The reporting emphasizes the atmosphere of the reconstructed sounds, while providing limited detail on the specific methods used to infer the calls. The two sources do not diverge meaningfully in their description of what is being recreated or the time period referenced, but they use similar framing that highlights the auditory result.

Overall, the coverage treats the “Jurassic sound” as a scientifically informed reconstruction designed to help audiences imagine what animals may have sounded like, based on available fossil and related information.
