Following publication of the original article [1], the authors realized that one reference, [2], cited in [3] as the original source of sheep audiogram data had not been included.

A new reference “222. Wollack CH. (1963). The Auditory Acuity of the Sheep (Ovisaries). Princeton University” should be added to the reference list.

In Fig. 1, “Sheep [44]” has been corrected to “sheep [222]”.

In Table 2, the reference for Sheep species was originally “Heffner and Heffner [44]” and has been corrected to “Wollack [222]”.

The original article [1] has been updated.
