Bats

Bats predators are snakes, racoons, opossums. and tarantulas. Sometimes a hawk or a owl will snatch them from the sky.

Bats have babies in caves. After a few weeks, baby bats cling to their mothers while the moms hunt for food.

Fur on the body and a skin between the bones of the wings.

Hawks and owls prey upon fruit bats. So do domestic cats. Humans even sometimes kill them because they are not always something you want in your yard, although they do kill the mosquitoes and other undesirable insects.

They can but they are usually asleep in sheltered roosts such as inside hollow trees, buildings or caves during the day - with one or two exceptions, they are nocturnal animals. Odd question - I wonder where the belief you are questioning, arose

These are both types of flying animals. There are many different species of both bats and birds; there are insect eating and fruit eating examples of both.

there's no such thing of a flying fox

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.

Bats do not eat squirrels. Most bats eat insects, some eat fruit, and the vampire bat drinks blood, but only of larger species, not squirrels.

• sharp teeth to suck blood to eat
• wing to fly
• light weight
• wing from their pinky to their waste to fly (made up of skin)
• sonar
• night vision eyes

The greater false vampire bat is found in Asia. The lesser false vampire bat has a wider range and is found from the Philippines to India and Sri Lanka.

NO, bats are mammals.

· Bats use echolocation to catch prey

· send out high frequency sound waves to find objects in their path

· echolocation calls are ultrasonic - beyond human hearing range in most cases but there is the Spotted Bat (euderma maculatum) which uses lower frequency echolocation calls which can be heard by people

· Canada has 19 species of bats

· life span of over 30 years

· bats are mammals - warm-blooded, give birth to live young

· wings are folds of skin supported by elongated finger bones

· resting bad hang head downward - making it easy to take to flight at any given moment

· average sized Canadian bat - weighs 8 g, wing span of about 22 cm

· larges Canadian species weighs about 30 g, wing span of 40 cm

· smallest Canadian species weighs about 5 g

· bats are not blind - they can see very well

· bats are nocturnal creatures

· bats in Canada feed on insects - will consume 50-100 percent of their body weight in one night

Not per se. Echo location requires the animal to emit high frequency sounds then tracking targets by the reflection of that sound. Dogs do not emit high frequency sounds, but do have acutely sensitive hearing, and are able to track by distinguishing the direction from which sound originates.

Bats mostly eat insects, except fruit bats that eat fruit and vampire bats that eat blood.

WELL...

There is a name for some one that dose not eat fruit that sort of person is called

a fruiterer, it sounds very unusual but it is a syble of what some one chooses to be.

I hope that you found my information helpful if you have any questions for me i would be happy to answer them .. Thank You.

I'm assuming that the bats are in a home or other undesirable location. The only EPA approved way to repel bats is with naphthalene (moth balls or crystals.) It will drive them away temporarily but they'll return when the crystals have evaporated. It will give you time to seal up any entry points, though.

It is a microbat. It lives in Latin America. All megabats live in the Old World.

around tyland (asia)

Acually bats do fly. They are the only mammals that can "fly", because things like sugargliders and gliding squirrels cannot create thrust by flapping their wings because technically they don't have any. Bats can gain altitude without wind by flapping. If you look at a bat's wing you will find it both resembles a human hand and a bird wing.

The basic difference between bats and owls is that bats are mammals and owls are birds.

Very good. In fact it is so good that a horse can hear somone calling it's name from a half a mile away! It can hear a soft whisper that if you told it to trot in a whisper it would trot. I hope my answer helps.

From what i know bats will swim if need be such as if they fall in or in to fruit from the surface of the water (or fish, perhaps) here's a link of an image of a bat maybe about to do just that:- http://images.Google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.geocities.com/radar_foxbat/image/Bats/grey_headed_flying_fox_skimming_water_original.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.geocities.com/radar_foxbat/&usg=__YdJxha03evrI1G_vVwwC_7hs-oM=&h=470&w=900&sz=67&hl=en&start=20&um=1&tbnid=OAFu7mco_47PSM:&tbnh=76&tbnw=146&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbats%2Bin%2Bwater%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG%26um%3D1

(hilight with the mouse & copy'n'past in2 the URL if need be) from what I've seen birds walk if they fell they don't have to fly (like us if we fell we don't have to run) so i guess bat will walk sumtimes. Re: John Gjerdrum, sydneyoutsider@hotmail.com

A bat wing consists of a membrane of skin stretched across extremely elongated fingers. A bird wing is an airfoil made of feathers attached to the forearm and fused bones in the "hand" and "wrist."
