Such noise can disrupt cetacean behavior such as their use of biosonar for orientation and communication. |
|
Marine mammals that make use of biosonar for orientation and communication are not only hindered by the extra noise, but may race to the surface in panic. |

This is filled with air sacs and fat that aid in buoyancy and biosonar. |
