Description

How are dolphins and bats alike? They can both see with their ears! That means they both use sound waves to navigate and find food. See With Your Ears! Dolphin and Bat Echolocation from Be Naturally Curious introduces children to the fascinating process of echolocation and the special anatomical features dolphins and bats have to accomplish it. Does your child love to build or construct models? See With Your Ears demonstrates some of the amazing ways animals’ bodies have specific anatomy for specific functions.
