Why is sound the main form of communication among animals? Could an animal species develop natural wifi or some kind of radio?

Biological antennas for electromagnetic radiation don't seem to be fine tuned, even if they exist.
Molecules wiggling (sound) seems to be simpler to gauge. Kinda makes sense, too, doesn't it.

The best I would expect is communication through radio clicks like a spark-gap transmitter, not highly sophisticated high bandwidth shit analogous to wi-fi.
