Rickett's big-footed bats use sonar to hunt. Starting with 20 calls per second, they can hit 150 right before striking their target. It's like a missile's shriek! #Bats #Sonar #Wildlife #Nature #Echolocation From: Animal Special Forces Series 01 Episode 01 | Real Wild

Even in total darkness, bats' sonar is incredibly precise. Their echolocation pulses, ranging from 30 to 80 kilohertz, are mostly beyond human hearing, making them expert hunters. The hunt is on. #Bats #Sonar #Echolocation #Wildlife #Nature From: Animal Special Forces Series 01 Episode 01 | Real Wild

Echolocation allows bats to not only hear sounds, but also to generate them. Male bats sing in ultrasound to attract females, and research shows females prefer more elaborate mating calls. #Echolocation #Bats #Ultrasound #AnimalBehavior #Wildlife | Real Wild
