They don't actually "see" using sound, but yes, they use a sonar-like ability called echolocation to determine distance from objects. They emit ultrasonic sound that only they can hear. When the sound hits an object such, it bounces back and the bat can determine the distance and direction to the object. Also, contrary to popular belief, bats are not blind. They have eyes and limited vision. They primarily use their vision to travel long distances.

How do bats use sound to survive?
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
Do animal bats use sonar?
Yes, bats use a type of echolocation called sonar to navigate and hunt for prey in the dark. They emit high-frequency sound waves that bounce off objects, allowing them to create a mental map of their surroundings.
Do bats use sound to navigate and to hunt?
they use sound to navigate and FIND there food but not to actually get the food, theyll use there eyes for grabbing berries or animals
How do bats use sound to navigate and to hunt?
Bats use sound by sending a sound wave to the object or prey that is going to approch,the sound wave bonces of of the prey and goes back to the bat. The sound wave that goes back to the bat tells the bat how far away the bat is and how fast it is approching the bat.
Do bats see?
no bats don't see. they use sound and when the vibrations of the noise jump off an object then the bats know to avoid it.
How do bats use sound to help them see?
Bats use sound to help see in the dark (don't forget bats are blind) by using something called echolocation. echolocation is were the bats make noises and the noise waves bounce back giving the bat an idea of its surrounding.However when the bat finds prey its sound changes. The sound the bat makes when getting pray is a clicking sound which gets faster and faster as it gets closer.Echolocation is like that of a submarine's radar.Another animal which uses this exact same method is the dolphin.
What does a animal bats use its ears for?
i think the uestion you are asking is what do bats use their ears for. well the use there ears to sonicly see where they are going. the use is for hearing the massive screecth noises. and by the time the sound comes back it basicly makes a 3D image of its surroundings.
Echolocation is a term usually associated with which animal?
Echolocation is when an animal produces a sound and it bounces off things and comes back to the animal. Most bats, dolphins and whales use this. They use it to tell where they are because their eyesight isn't as good as their hearing. Lots of animals then use it. In a simpler form, Animals that cannot see as well as they can hear use it or if they are in the dark.
How can sound help?
Some animals like bats and dolphins use sound to navigate. They do this by sending out sound waves. These bounce off of objects and come back to the animal. These returning sound waves are interpreted by the brain and create a kid of map for the animal.
What animal can hear the highest frequency sound?
While dogs can hear high frequency sounds, BATS may hold the record. They use high frequency sound for navigation.actually there are 2. dolphins and miceBeluga Whaleand bats
What is echolocation on bats?
Echolocation is when you use sound to locate where something is. Bats use it.
Which animals use supersonic waves and how?
None ! Some animals such as bats, use ultra-sonic sound to locate prey, and 'see' in the dark.
How can animal sees in the abyssal zone?
They don't see, a few do produce their own light - but generally they use echolocation or sound.
Why are bats able to see in complete darkness?
u will be surprised to know that bats do not use their eyes when they fly in darkness. A bat makes a sound continuously while it flies. The sound waves strike the nearby objects
What sort of sound waves do bats use?
Well bats use echo waves. These waves help them to know where everything is because bats are blind. See if you where standing there he would know your there with Eco waves with out actually seeing you
Do vampire bats have sonar?
No. SONAR (SOund Navigation And Ranging) is an acronym for a human technology that used for underwater navigation. Bats have the ability that may be similar to SONAR, but they do not use a machine and do not use it under water. They use their ultra sensitive hearing and brain processing to "see" in the dark with sound waves, sort of like how we see with light waves.
