Behaviour, biology, and evolution of vocal learning in bats

2019-05-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> The comparative approach can provide insight into the evolution of human speech, language, and social communication by studying relevant traits in animal systems. Bats are emerging as a model system with great potential to shed light on these processes given their learned vocalisations, close social interactions, and mammalian brains and physiology. A recent framework outlined the multiple levels...
