This multi-species dataset was customized for Human and Animal Voice Activity Detection (vocal segmentation) when training the multi-species WhisperSeg-large segmenter..
## Download Dataset
```python
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
snapshot_download('nccratliri/vad-multi-species', local_dir = "data/multi-species", repo_type="dataset" )
```
