    Heisenberg? What if the sound or light from the cameras makes it hard for them to sense other bats, or become confused? :)

      I know you’re saying that in jest, but I would assume that the bat scientists used quiet infrared cameras for their work.

        I’m only half-joking. Who knows… maybe some ultra-sonic transistor whine went unnoticed by human ears, but was deafening to the echo-locators… or infra-red blinding because we are wrong somewhat about how their eyes work.
