If this question pertains to animals and not how many Baseball bats can be made out of one tree, then the answer depends upon the species of bat. While many bats do roost in trees, they do not always roost in large numbers. When bats do roost in large numbers, there may be several hundred individuals in one area, but ithey may use many trees. Most bats roost in small numbers (10-15 individuals) or solitary. With specific reference to trees, bats may roost on the surface of the tree bark using cryptic (camouflage) coloration to hide them from predators. They can roost under peeling pieces (exfoliating) bark where the must squeeze their bodies into the crevice. They are also known to use tree hollows.
