Abstract
Anthropogenic noise is an emerging global pollutant. Road networks andenergy extraction infrastructure are both spatially extensive and rapidlyexpanding sources of noise. We predict that predators reliant on acousticcues for hunting are particularly sensitive to louder environments. Herewe examined the foraging efficiency of pallid bats (Antrozous pallidus)when exposed to played-back traffic and gas compressor station noise inthe laboratory. We...
