> most animals don't even have (language)

Sure they do.

Almost all speak the universal language: body language. Spoken language is built upon patterns and rhythms, or simply music in short.

Woodpeckers can communicate with pecking noises. Whales and other birds have their songs. Dogs have wags, barks, whines, and howls. Cats have purrs and meows. Insects have pheromones in some cases, while bees have jigs that can relay the distance and direction to a source of food, others like crickets make symphonies (have you ever heard them when they're slowed down?)

The evolution of the ear is quite fascinating.

There's even evidence to suggest plants enjoy music and being talked to. And they don't even have ears, as far as we know. And there's also evidence that some plants can communicate with symbiotic ants with pheromones signaling "hey come help me I'm being attacked." Which triggers the ants to go and defend the plant.
