I would imagine an Albino Bat, like the fictiional Bartok in Anastasia Dark colors are vital to the Bat"s survival as a form of camouflage as they operate mainly at night, a White bat would stand out in outdoor lighting and be an easy, visible target. They do exist and are almost pretty and graceful, not demonic like dark hued bats- i still don not like Bats, but a White one would stand out and would have nadvantages to the bat"s modusw vivendi

It is fairly rare. It is caused by a lack of melenin which is the pigment that colours eyes skin and hair. This is a genetic mutation and, as a result, ablinism can often affect a whole generation from a family. For example if you have 1 albino child it would not be that rare for his/her siblings to also be albino.

Quite rare. Albinism is a mutation of melanin production caused by recessive gene alleles, and can only be selected as a phenotype when there are no dominant alleles to replace it.

Anything albino is rare because it comes from a mutation that affects the body's ability to give the skin pigmentation, or color.
