The vampire bat living in parts of Mexico and Central America, mostly gets the blood from sleeping farm animals such as cows. They make a small hole with their teeth and lick the blood from the animal. The bleeding is very small but so is the vampire bat. Blood keeps coming out because the bat has an anticuagulant in it's saliva until he finishes the feeding.
