Why are bats so misunderstood?

Answer 1

they are small and sometimes can be pests, many people are scared or just disgusted by their habits

Bats get a bad reputation in the movies (vampires). They are frequently carriers of rabies... or worse. Some live in great communities in tight, dark quarters (caves) that aren't suited for interaction with humans. They only venture forth from their caves in the first hours of evening darkness. They're not very sociable. The floors of their caves are frequently covered with a thick blanket of guano (bat feces). To add to the above, as a rule, many species are not very photogenic; they don't do closeups.

Answer 2

Out of the thousands of species of bats, there are three species of vampire bats. These bats have been the subject of legends that have surrounded all bats. Also, bats come out only at night, making them mysterious and creepy, especially since they come out in large groups and have a very irregular flight pattern. Bats are full of diseases and parasites, and roost in attics as pests. However, the good outweighs the bad. A single bat can eat its entire weight in mosquitoes every single night. That alone is a reason to love bats! Also, their waste fertilizes any soil they fly above- they are like birds, except that they have mammal waste, so it is very, very rich. Some bats even pollinate flowers and spread seeds! So they are very good for the environment, but there are too many legends surrounding them for people to see it.

Answer 3

Some people think bats can get annoying and a lot of people think bats are interesting!
