Highlights • Gleaning bats exploit specular reflection to detect acoustically camouflaged prey • High-resolution echo measurements predict unmasking of prey for oblique angles • Hunting bats actively approach silent prey resting on leaves from oblique angles • Exploiting specular reflection can be a counter-strategy in the bat-prey arms race Summary Filtering relevant signals from noisy sensory input is a crucial challenge for animals [, 2 Bee M.A. Finding a mate at a cocktail party: spatial...
