Data from: A 2.6‐g sound and movement tag for studying the acoustic scene and kinematics of echolocating bats
1. To study sensorimotor behaviour in wild animals, it is necessary to synchronously record the sensory inputs available to the animal, and its movements. To do this, we have developed a biologging device that can record the primary sensory information and the associated movements during foraging an...
