Whales use a combination of rapid echolocation adjustments and nimble brain responses to zero in on fast-moving prey, suggests a study published today in eLife. The findings show that echolocating ...

Recordings from echolocating bat brains have for the first time given researchers a view into how mammals understand 3-D space. By training bats to fly around obstacles in a room, and sit patiently on ...

Bats are well known for their ability to “see” with sound, using echolocation to find food and their roosts. Some bats may also conceive a map made of sounds from their home range. This map can help ...
