Original

The young of ground-nesting warblers produce begging cheeps of higher frequencies than do their tree-nesting relatives.

These higher-frequency sounds do not travel as far, and so may better conceal the individuals producing them, who are especially vulnerable to predators in their ground nests.

Paraphrase-1

Even though tThe offsprings of ground-nesting warblers produce high-frequency begging cheeps, they are less likely to be encountered by a predator as the sounds because they produce high-frequency begging cheeps, which do not travel as much.

I would not use "even though" here because it makes it seem like they are able to conceal themselves despite the higher frequency cheeps, when in reality it is the higher frequency that is concealing them.

Paraphrase-2

Although gGround nestling young warblers generate a higher frequency of begging cheeps than tree nesting birds, so they stay safe since the sounds travel little.

Again, I would not use "although" because it makes it sound like the birds are overcoming an obstacle (higher frequency) when the higher frequency is what is helping them. You might say "although" or "even though" about the fact that they nest on the ground.

Therefore, predators are unable to recognize the sounds of ground-nesting warblers.
