And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.... Genesis 3:14
It seems that all the Creation - Plants, animals and of course humans -- were tweaked after the fall -- and each given a survival skill in this fallen world....below is an example for moths...
"Bats pierce the shadows with ultrasonic pulses that enable them to
construct an auditory map of their surroundings, which is bad news for
moths, one of their favorite foods.
However, not all moths are defenseless prey. Some emit ultrasonic
signals of their own that startle bats into breaking off pursuit.
Many moths that contain bitter toxins avoid capture altogether by
producing distinct ultrasounds that alert bats to their foul taste.
Others conceal themselves in a shroud of sonar-jamming static that makes
them hard to find with bat echolocation.
While effective, these types of auditory defense mechanisms in moths
are considered relatively rare, known only in tiger moths, hawk moths
and a single species of geometrid moth.
“It’s not just tiger moths and hawk moths that are doing this,” said
Dr. Akito Kawahara, a researcher at the Florida Museum of Natural
History.
“There are tons of moths that create ultrasonic sounds, and we hardly know anything about them.” SciNews
