Why can’t we hear the sound of squeaks produced by bats?

Bat uses echolocation to sense movement and their surroundings. We cannot hear the high pitched noise they emit because it is of a frequency higher than what the human can hear. There are some sounds of bat that we can hear but we can’t hear squeaks because their frequency comes in the range of ultrasound (more than 20 kHz) and we can hear between 20 Hz to 20 kHz only.
