Most bats (about 70%) actually only eat insects which would technically make them insectivores, a subdivision of carnivores. These insects consist of moths, mosquitoes, flies and the like. Other bats however, eat fruit, while some consume nectar from flowers. Another species, the vampire bat, pricks the skin of animals and licks the blood from the wound. As you can see, there are many different types of bats, which have a wide range of food-related adaptations, so whether a bat is a carnivore, herbivore or omnivore is really dependent upon the specific species of group that you are considering.
