← Nature & AnimalsWhich risk escalates for horseshoe bats hunting near wind turbines?
A)Increased predation by ground foragers
B)Disrupted echolocation jamming avoidance✓
C)Reduced prey capture from visual masking
D)Elevated stress via magnetic field disruption
💡 Explanation
Turbine noise masks prey echoes, causing masking interference that increases echolocation jamming avoidance; therefore, bats struggle, as jammed signals decrease successful hunts when noise prevents discernment, rather than increased predation at ground level.
