Echolocation


Definition?
Echolocation is like when you make as sound, it bounces off something and you will be able to hear it again as an echo. It bounces off walls or objects that are next to you.


How do Dolphins and Whales hear?
So whales hear by making sounds under water. The sound will hit an object that is underwater, then it bounces back and echoes.  That is how they find prey. Dolphins are like whales but they make clicking noises underwater. It reflects to an object under water thats how they find prey or friends.
