Question

How do bats locate their prey? Explain in detail.

Answer 1

Bats locate and catch the prey by the mechanism called echolocation. During the hunting time, the bats produce a constant stream of high-pitched sounds. When the sound waves produced by them hits an insect or other animal, the echoes bounce back to the bat that guides them to the prey. The time interval between cry and echo helps to determine the distance of the prey.
