- Scientist uses heavy metal music to train wild bats in Panama
- Description
- How do you train a wild animal to come back to you after you have set it free? If it is a fringe-lipped bat, Trachops cirrhosis, just play a bit of heavy metal music. Bat researcher and postdoctoral fellow, Inga Geipel from the Smithsonian’s Tropical Research Institute in Panama, has trained wild bats to associate a music with food.
