Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Bats use echolocation, a form of nighttime navigation, to locate their prey. Bats often generate sounds at a 2 to 3 times higher pitch than our hearing range. Ultrasonic sounds are typically described as being above human hearing. The pitch of the echolocation sound is so high that it is audible only to animals. However, the sound behaves in the same way as your shout. It moves through the air as a wave, and each item it encounters causes the wave's energy to bounce off of it. A bat makes a sound and carefully observes the echoes that come back to it. As a result, bats are able to make and perceive ultrasonic sounds.
