I've found many examples of language deficits due to sleep loss/deprivation in humans, a few studies on language comprehension deficits in humans, but nothing that looks at sleep deprivation effects on both signaler and receiver in non-humans. I'd love examples!
You raised an interesting question. Please see the articles from my library that will allow you to consider your question in different aspects. Good luck to you.
This may need to be carried out in a systematic manner but ,in rural India bullock cart was very common.The cattle get set to the human defined life style . Also sleep is not of its choice but, takes a nap while chewing the grass drawn from the stomach.Deep sleep may not be an easy activity for animals because, alertness only saves the life from predators and if it is under the care of humans the owner only decides the sleeping time.Even with hectic schedules of agricultural activities their response does not deteriorate instead if it is too tired to cope up with the task shows disobedience.
Thank you both for your responses. Although the relevance is there, I am still at a loss looking for communication-related studies of sleep loss.
