This shows that the bats are using supersonic waves as a communication method, which is also called echolocation. They make a high pitched sound that humans cannot hear. A bat’s hearing is not even affected by high-pitched frequencies that could cause hearing damage in people. This echolocation is like the natural form of sonar.
