This book provides a comprehensive review of the evolution of
traits associated with predation and predator defense for bats and
all of their prey, both invertebrates (e.g. insects) and
vertebrates (e.g. frogs), in the context of co-evolution. It
reviews current knowledge of how echolocation and passive hearing
are used by bats to hunt prey in complete darkness. Also it
highlights how prey have evolved counter measures to bat
echolocation to avoid detection and capture. This includes the
whole range of prey responses from being active at times when bats
are inactive to the use of acoustic signals of their own to
interfere with the echolocation system of bats.
