Common vampire bats are social animals. They roost alone, in small groups, or in colonies of up to 2,000 bats. When colonies are larger than about 50 bats, they split up into smaller groups consisting of females and their young. A single male often roosts close to each female group and attempts to maintain his right to breed with the females of the group. Clashes between males frequently occur; they are hard-fought battles that involve biting, kicking and battering with wings. Social Bonds are enhanced by grooming, this normally occurs between females and young, and female to female. A female grooms another female for several minutes, after which the recipient regurgitates part of their blood meal for the other to consume. This practice proves important since one in three bats are unsuccessful in finding a blood meal each night. A vampire bat dies if it does not get a blood meal in two to three days. One strategy for survival is to groom or beg from another bat, in order to receive a much needed blood meal.

Can a vampire birth a child?

Vampires are bats from South America who take some blood from cattle at night. They can obviously breed. Coventional vampire mythology says that they cannot have children as they have given up their mortality for eternal life as a vampire. They are considered dead, and therefore cannot produce new life. Some variations of the vampire myth may have different concepts of vampires that do allow them to have children.

What is the difference between vampires and vampire bats?

My opinion, I think the difference between a succubus vampire and a real vampire is that a vampire just wants to eat you and drink your blood. A succubus it like practically has sex with u or lures you into wanting her badly then right in the middle she kills u and drinks ur blood. Your typical vampire has a re-animated dead body that it has to maintain by drinking blood. Not only does the vampire gain nutrition by drinking blood but also it steals life-force at the same time. A succubus (the female variety of an incubus) does not have a physical body but is a creature of pure spirit. It only steals life-force as it has no need of any physical nutrients. She comes upon her male victim while he is sleeping and induces in him an erotic dream. It is via this dream that she is able to steal life-force.
