About this sound
This audio file of ultrasonic sound waves from a Seminole bat was recorded at Pa-hay-okee in October 2011. The file has been optimized to make the sounds audible to humans.
Why parks record sound
The NPS Natural Sounds and Night Skies Division monitors soundscapes in parks across the United States. Natural quiet is treated as a resource to protect, like clean air or dark skies: noise from aircraft, vehicles and machinery can mask animal communication and change the experience of a place.
