Perception of silent and motionless prey on vegetation by echolocation in the gleaning bat Micronycteris microtis
Gleaning insectivorous bats that forage by using echolocation within dense forest vegetation face the sensorial challenge of acoustic masking effects. Active perception of silent and motionless prey in acoustically cluttered environments by echolocation alone has thus been regarded impossible. The g...
