Fledermausmeeting
In the organizer's words:
Bats are mammals that can fly. They are endangered because there are unfortunately fewer and fewer insects and places for them to retreat to. The Adenauer Weiher is a small paradise for bats in the city. There is plenty of dead wood in the forest where insects live. Here we experience an impressive natural phenomenon in the middle of the city.
A bat consumes between 1,000 and 2,000 mosquitoes per night. Their orientation works with ultrasound: bats emit sounds that are inaudible to us and process the echoes into a spatial "auditory image". Susanne Roer lets us hear their sounds with the help of an ultrasound detector.
When the common noctule and the common pipistrelle go on the hunt for mosquitoes, things get wild in Cologne.
