They can sure Carey a tune.
bats can reach a vocal range of 7 octaves — nearly double the range of a normal human being.
“Well-known examples are Mariah Carey, Axl Rose and Prince. It turns out bats surpass this range by using different structures in their larynx.” “Most mammals have a range of 3-4, and humans about 3. Some human singers can reach a range of 4-5, but they are only very few,” said lead author Professor Coen Elemans.“For example, bats can make low-frequency calls, using their so-called ‘false vocal folds’ – like human death metal singers do.”
Bats also make a similar sound to throat singers. Throat singing is an ancient tradition practiced by the people of Tuva, a small republic in southern Siberia. These throat singers can produce two or more pitches simultaneously.“Some seem aggressive, some may be an expression of annoyance, and some may have a very different function. We don’t know yet,” co-author and bat expert Dr. Lasse Jakobsen.
