Several animal species are able to hear frequencies well beyond the human hearing range. Some dolphins and bats, for example, can hear frequencies up to 100,000 Hz. Elephants can hear sounds at 14–16 Hz, while some whales can hear infrasonic sounds as low as 7 Hz.

Answer:

Bats

Bats might seem a little creepy to some of us, but that is also what makes them so fascinating. They use a biological sonar system called echolocation to snag their prey and avoid objects. Bats chirp and click as they fly, relying on the resulting sound waves to help guide their way. Even a tiny insect 15 to 20 feet away from a bat isn’t safe and will most likely become part of the bat’s next meal.

Elephants

You’ve probably heard the expression “elephant ears.” It describes someone with an extraordinary ability to hear sounds that would be inaudible to virtually everyone else. Well, the phrase is extremely accurate! Elephants have some of the best hearing around. They can hear at frequencies 20 times lower than humans. It isn’t just their ears that perceive sound; these majestic beasts also have receptors in their trunks and feet that are excellent at picking up low-frequency vibrations. That explains why elephants are usually the first animals to detect an upcoming thunderstorm and move toward the new source of water.

Sounds above human hearing are usually called ultrasonic.
