For communication. Higher or more advanced lifeforms need to be able to communicate with each other and other species for a wide range of activities - mating, feeding, territory, dominance.

∙ 14y agoCreatures like dolphins and bats have a special sonar ( or echolocation) ability that when it hits an object, the sound waves will bounce back and hit the animal that made the sound and reveals the shape/size of the creature or rock(etc.) that it hit. Humans do not have this power because the sounds/noises we produce are not high/low enough to do the same thing.
