Radar 'saves bats at wind farms' (BBC)

[eppur_se_muova]

Bats at risk of being killed by the growing number of wind farms could be saved with the use of radars.

Bat deaths at wind farms are thought to exceed those of birds and it is feared some species could eventually become endangered if action is not taken.

Now researchers at Aberdeen University believe radar may be key.

They studied the behaviour of bats at radar installations and found they did not forage where electromagnetic radiation could be measured.

"We think the bats either feel the heat of the radiation or can actually hear it. Either way, they appear not to like it, and forage elsewhere."

Interesting. Of course you can't "hear" radar (it's not a sound wave), but some animals are known to be sensitive to types of radiation that humans aren't.
