if you've ever experimented with echoes in a large empty room or at the edge of a canyon then you have the beginnings of an idea about how echolocation works.
Echolocation is how bats "see". It is basically the act of making a noise and using the returning soundwaves to determine where something is - it is essentially using echoes to locate something.
Bat's can see, however, since they are primarily nocturnal, echolocation is a more reliable way of navigating.
bats have poor eye sightsthey use echolocation instead
By measuring how far an object is with sound waves, this is called echolocation. It should be noted that bats are not completely blind, they can see but very poorly.
Dolphins use echolocation to "see" around them when the water is murky. They can use it when they can't see with their eyes and also use it to locate fish and prey.
dolphins can see through sight and echolocation

Because bats can not see well, and they need to fine their food.

the pink dolphin of the Amazon River. It uses echolocation
Bats use echolocation.
Several types of animals use echolocation, including but not limited to: Dolphins Shrews Most bats and most whales. Also, two bird groups use their echolocation to navigate through caves. Echolocation is used by animals who usually can't see very well, or they live in an environment that is hard to see in the first place. (For example, the oceans.) They use it to call out, and the echoes of the calls are used to navigate around in their environment. It's also used to hunt as well as navigate.

bats use echolocation to 'see'. echolocation is when sound waves bounce off an object and back to the bat. the bat then can feel the size, the shape, and even the movement of other predators, prey, each other, and objects
