Read the story, "Bats." Then tell what the MAIN IDEA of the story is.


Bats


A bat can fly at night or even with its eyes closed. But, if you cover its ears, it can't fly very well. Bats make sounds that people can't hear. The bats find their way by listening to these sounds as they echo off things. This is called echo-location. Bats even locate insects to eat by following the sounds that bounce off the bugs. People use their eyes, but bats use their ears to know where they are going.

Bats

People

Sounds
