Are there white bats in North America?

Answer 1

White bats are simply albino bats. Albino animals (or people) are animals with a mutation in the enzymes used to produce dark pigment. All animal species occasionally produce albino animals. Therefore, there is bound to exist white bats every once in a while. However, I am not sure if there is a species of bats that is generally white. That seems to be unlikely because nocturnal birds, like owls, would be able to easily spot white bats in the moonlight and they wouldbe more likely to be eaten than black bats which are harder to spot at night.
