If you have tuned in the last two weeks, you must be suitably impressed by Bailey the beluga. Not only can this and other whales "see" using sound, they can identify the size, shape, and texture of reflectors based on the nature of the reflections of sound from them. These animals pull of a second impressive physiological feat by controlling the gain of their auditory system to protect it from the loud echolocating clicks when they are produced but then rapidly increasing gain to receive the reflection.
