I was listening to a 90’s mix today and this came on featuring some peacock calls at the start. What other songs feature animal calls ... could be good for a pub quiz.
Who let the dogs out!
Lioness Eye by Xavier Rudd has lots of bird calls in it. Think other tracks off the Spirit Bird album do too.

Shakira - Shewolf for the most pathetic wolf call you’ll ever hear.
The first time I listen to Sure Shot was as I was reversing out of my drive - thought I'd killed someone's dog
the missing track from 'Since I left you' makes nice use of a horse
Ivor Biggun, the Cockerel Song?? 🙂

Sublime
And in a similar vein
Third World's version of Satta Massagana has cool birds at the beginning ... not sure what species.
Jane's Addiction - Been Caught Stealing
Kanye West- Black skinhead

Was going to say this for the dog barks, but ahaha forgot about the budgerigars 😉

Lene Lovich ‘Bird Song:
Following on with the ‘Orb’ trip there are horse-hoofen to be heard clopping through FFWD’s ‘Lucky Saddle’:
Oasis, Champagne Supernova.
22-Pistepirkko - Birdie
Narwhal ggrrrrruuuuUUUUhhhhhUUUUUhhhh

Much of this
L. Mozart's Toy Symphony ... kind of:
Not sure if RTJ used a real cat

But check the verses! "The air pollution is ****ing up my eyes" ... Ray Davies=genius.

Reminds me of Alpine breakfasts overlooking Wolfgangsee. Happiest of days.

At the end
All those 70s whalesong tracks (ELO etc) got it off the same one album, apparently.
Not actually animal calls as such, but…

“Songs Of The Humpback Whale” - I’ve got an original vinyl copy.
Thanks for the “Cloaked By Ravens Wings” track, I love ravens, kind of my totem bird, there’s a pair that hand around where I work, I always know when they’re about because of the croaking call, although I’ve heard them making other sounds; they’ve got something like 120 different vocalisations, apparently. The EP is now on my phone. I’ll be checking out more of their music as well.
At least one growl on this no chickens though, chickenhawk must have gotten them
Lesbian Seagull by Englebert Humperdink
Or Mr Van Driessen
