Video
High aggression interaction. Video clip starts 225 s into the trial, and the intruder bat has already made two failed attempts at roosting with the cluster. The unbanded bat shows signs of higher arousal and agitation by tracking the movement of the intruder, taking defensive postures, and vocalizing before the intruder makes physical contact. At 21 s into the video clip, an additional 97 s of the trial are cut, in which the intruder is roosting alone on the opposite side of the cage. The intruder emits biosonar calls between the aggressive interactions. Note how the other two roosting bats are unresponsive, even during the prolonged high aggression interaction.Credit: Gadziola M, Grimsley J, Faure P, Wenstrup J · CC BY 2.5Source ↗
