Revenge of the moths as insects jam bat signal - http://www.smh.com.au/environment/revenge-of-the-moths-as-insects-jam-bat-sig...
Researchers who studied the clicking moths over the past 50 years developed three hypotheses for how the sounds worked: that the noise would startle the bats, they sent a warning the moths were toxic, or that they may render the bats' sonar ineffective, according to the study published in the journal Science yesterday.
"These animals have been in an evolutionary arms race for millions of years," a co-author of the paper, Aaron Corcoran, said in a telephone interview from a research station in the Chiricahua Mountains in Arizona.
"The predator and prey are constantly trying to one-up each other."
Bats are born bottom-first—an arrangement that minimizes the chances of the wings getting tangled in the birth canal. Newborns are enormous, often weighing in at 25 or 30 percent of their mother's weight. For the first few days of its life, the baby remains upside-down, suckling at its mother's breast. Since most bats are born singly, it would disturb the mother's balance if her newborn hung on one side. To remedy this, the baby hangs at an angle across the chest, its mouth grasping one breast and its hind legs hooked under the opposite armpit. http://www.exzooberance.com/virtual%20zoo/they%20fly/bat/bat.htm
Echolocation -
Bats use a method called echolocation to find their way in the dark. Echolocation is quite an elaborate process. Bats emit a sound either through their mouths or their noses. These sounds travel outward, and when they hit an object, even one as small as an insect, the sound bounces back to the bat's ears. This is how they can tell how large an object or insect is, and how far away it is. That erratic flight pattern that we find so strange is the bat reacting to echolocation. Usually they are turning in flight to catch an insect. http://www.ehow.com/how-does_4566276_bats-their-way-dark.html
This doesn't make any sense only because evolution didn't happen.

So where does WNS fit into that picture?

@andy16666 The first half of my post is meant to be satire of the evolution model.

@Howie47 It's not perfectly orchestrated, or perfectly anything. Even christians admit that. Yet somehow when it serves your purposes, you like to claim it is. :-P

Yea! Like every thing evolved in a perfectly orchestrated crescendo of rhythmic balance over time. To reach a peak of static balance, beauty and brilliance; so that if one bug becomes extinct the whole system is in danger of collapse. What it really is, is a perfectly balanced system, that is ravaged and marred by disorderly disruptive alien influences. But having the ability to fight off and heal it self against those destructive forces. Evolution is stupid!

Evolution is about how life is so diversified, it hinders on the environment, it explains the individual species in the context of a wider system.

Excellent, video.
It will never cease to amaze me that, even with such evidence, the wicked will ignore God's glorious creation and pander to the inept scribblings of a man who imagined evolution and tried to document the lie.
It goes to show that the Bible is right when it says that although man knew the truth, he suppressed it and glorified the creature rather than the Creator. (Romans 1)
Sadly, even that fact is veiled to them who know not God and are perishing. (2 Corinthians 4:3)
