BABats are among the most interesting animals on Earth. Like birds, they are the only vertebrates (animals with a backbone) that can truly fly.
What makes bats even more special is their ability to navigate and hunt in complete darkness using echolocation, a kind of natural sonar system.
But how did bats develop this remarkable ability?
To answer this question, we will be looking at the research paper “The Evolution of Echolocation in Bats,” where the researchers assess the fossils, genetics, and the sounds bats make today.
