Ann's Animals

Recorded by pioneer of film sound design, Ann Kroeber, this library showcases a unique variety of animal sound effects and vocalizations. Featuring over 20 animals including common, wild, and exotic creatures - ranging from pigs and frogs to capuchin monkeys, caribou and more - this special collection is equally useful and inspiring for practical sound editing and creative sound design.

Animal recordings play a significant role in Kroeber’s sonic legacy, and she is widely celebrated for her natural approach and incredibly expressive results. Her sense of presence with the animals and finely tuned listening shines through in these sounds – from the gentle, subtle breaths and purrs of cheetahs to a sprawling chorus of jungle frogs. Create thoughtful and powerful creature designs with these characteristic animal roars, shrieks, snorts, cries, buzzes, and more.

This exclusive sound effects library was curated from Sound Mountain: Kroeber and Splet’s venerable private recording collection created over decades of film sound work.
