Is bat connecting link between birds and mammals?

Bats are not considered a direct connecting link between birds and mammals; rather, they are mammals themselves, belonging to the order Chiroptera. While bats share some similarities with birds, such as the ability to fly, these traits evolved independently through convergent evolution. Birds and bats have distinct evolutionary lineages, with birds descending from theropod dinosaurs and bats evolving from early mammals. Thus, bats exemplify the diversity of adaptations within mammals, rather than bridging the gap between birds and mammals.
