Bat Sounds!

Bats are nocturnal flying mammals that sound as unique as they look and behave! Find out for yourself with this cool bat sounds app!

Many of the sounds that bats make (for example, those used for echo location - allowing the bat to "see" in the dark using sound and echoes) are ultrasonic, or above the pitch that human hearing can detect. However, bats also make many sounds that we CAN hear! During daylight hours, bats typically sleep in caves or other dark areas; but as nighttime descends, bats leave their homes to spend the cool, dark hours of night hunting for fruit, insects or other sources of food. When bats are flying nearby you can often hear them whooshing through the air, fluttering their wings, or making squeaks, chirps or clicks to communicate. With this app you can hear these unique and interesting bat sounds without even going outside!

Use this app as an educational tool to learn various bat sounds and better understand bat communication! These eerie nighttime sounds can also be a great addition to spooky haunted houses or Halloween themed parties! You can even use these sounds as ringtones or share them with friends!
