Can you hear those sharp clicking sounds? Bottlenose dolphins use echolocation by sending rapid, high-frequency pulses that bounce off objects like fish and the sandy seafloor, helping them create a detailed acoustic map of their surroundings. In the Bahamas, they use this skill to crater feed, locating fish buried beneath the sand and diving nose-first to flush them out. The circular craters they leave behind linger for hours, like underwater footprints. It’s a clever technique, passed down through generations, that showcases how dolphins adapt their environments and rely on complex social learning to thrive in the wild.
