There's an attached blurb to the main article "Biological Arms Race" describing how prey work out escape plans from echolocation. A biological version of Electronic Warfare. Their bodies detect the sonar and they take evasive maneuvers. As a former Navy EW I really liked this portion of the article :-). If the bugs ever figure out how to work the deception repeater that some of them appear to be evolving, the bats are in trouble.
