Pant-hoot: Males more often than females emit long-distance panting/hooting sounds termed "pant-hoot" when they reach a big food patch, travel a long disatnce in a big group, while eating from a great food source etc. Adult males' pant-hoots are often accompanied by intimidation displays such as stamping, slapping and throwing rocks.
