Geocache Description:


GOING BATTY #13

 

Welcome to my new Bat caches.  When I lived in Missouri during the summer of 2003, I worked at Ozark Caverns within Lake of The Ozarks State Park. Ozark Caverns has remained mostly natural as there is no lighting installed in the caves, which makes it a great habitat for bats.  I learned quite a bit about bats and wanted to create a few bat puzzle caches: the "Bump In The Night" for Snag The Tag is the perfect time to do it too.  

 

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

 

Bat Fact #13

“Blind as a bat” isn’t true.

 

Bats can see fine, but most species use echolocation for hunting & navigation. This highly-developed system allows them to find prey, and as they get closer, they emit more and more sounds to get a precise fix.

 

Echolocation is the process by which animals emit calls out to their environment, and then listen to the echoes of those sounds as they bounce off nearby objects and return to them. Bats can figure out an object’s size, shape, the direction it’s moving (if any), and how far away their target is by using echolocation.
