emergency whistle
Shrill rescue tool
An emergency whistle is a small, loud whistle designed to signal distress or attract attention in dangerous situations.
Standard equipment in survival kits, life jackets, and hiking gear, it carries farther than the human voice and requires less energy than shouting: She blew her emergency whistle until rescuers found her.
Many models are designed to work even when wet.
