Pregnancy-related sensory deficits might impair foraging in echolocating bats
Abstract Background Reproduction entails substantial demands throughout its distinct stages. The mammalian gestation period imposes various energetic costs and movement deficits, but its effects on the sensory system are poorly understood. Bats rely heavily on active sensing, using echolocation to f...
