Echolocation what does it mean? Echolocation is something that some blind people use to move around the place. Some animals use echolocation such as dolphins, bats, whales and even dolphins.

As for  bats they use echolocation in the darkness. For some bats they use echolocation with their noses and mouths too. Most bats use echolocation in the darkness to look for their prey. When the sound bounces off an object, it comes right back to them and it makes an echo. Usually bats use echolocation in the darkness and to find their food.

Ben Underwood had eye cancer when he was 2. When he was about 3 years old he had gotten his eyes removed . He became blind but he could move freely as a normal person and he doesn't bump into anything where ever he is going. When moving around, Ben makes clicking sounds with his tongue. When he makes clicking sounds, the sound rebounds off an object then comes back with an echo which he notices and knows where he is going . Ben doesn't use a cane or a guide dog either. Ben is not like us.  He is blind and he can still move around like a normal person. Ben can play basketball, ride rollerskates, and he can even ride a bike. WOW!. That’s just amazing. Sadly Ben died at the age of 16.
