I’ve heard it postulated from time to time that these low-frequency noises are what homing pigeons use to find their way around.
I wonder if it’s possible for the scientists to record the sounds some way and speed them up so that we can hear them— make a symphony kind of like that guy did with “And God Created Whales”

Let's do a normal mode analysis of the Earth.
Complicating factors:
oblate ellipsoid;
core / mantle / crust;
atmosphere / oceans;

Hey. Seems like a good idea. And if Saturn tells me to, I better. Gotta run.

“Maybe this noise is what animals hear and then move out of dangers way when earthquakes are imminent.......”
I believe that.
I personally witnessed that one night with my pets before an earthquake hit. At that moment, I did not realize an earthquake was about to hit. After it hit, I realized why their unusual, unorthodox behavior. They behaved quietly scared.
