You may one day be able to understand exactly what your fish are communicating.

Japanese company Takara has released a canine-to-human translator. The Bowlinguals is a collar-worn dog radio that converts barks and growls into 200 phrases and pictures through a handheld monitor.

About 2000 woofs from 80 breeds were analysed to identify when a dog is happy, sad, frustrated, needy or angry.

Now work is underway at a secret Takara laboratory to decode the language of fish, birds, cats and plants.
