My favorite science experience is discovering the secret worlds of animals. Many animals, like bats, are hard to find–they often are small, fly fast, move around in the dark, vocalize in frequencies beyond what we can hear, and hide in difficult-to-reach places like caves. With research, though, we can gain new insights into animals’ amazing abilities and how they live their lives. Such insights inevitably lead to a greater understanding and appreciation of the incredible species with which we share the Earth.
