Japanse hoefijzervleermuizen filteren prooi uit lawaai met ultrasone frequenties

Japanese horseshoe bats employ dynamic ultrasonic frequency adjustments to distinguish prey signals from background noise in their forest habitats. Researchers at Doshisha University discovered these bats actively manage sensory input by modulating their echolocation calls, enabling them to hunt effectively despite the acoustic chaos created by wind, vegetation and other environmental sounds.
