I need everyone to go read this thread, because
@echodislocation.bsky.social gave a very detailed response (with linked articles!) to
@pedroblack42.bsky.social orginal question, asking if bats percieved an 'image' when echolocating!
This is such a fascinating area of research!

I work with humans, so am kind of a spectator to animal echolocation myself, but it must depend on how you define "generating an image." Are echoes converted to specifically *visual* imagery? Or do they produce an abstracted mental representation that is also accessible to the bat's visual system?
