Bat Facts & Myths

Bats are not related to rodents. In fact, fruit bats may soon be reclassified as primates.
Bats are the only flying mammals in the world. (Flying squirrels do not fly, they glide.)
Of the world's 1,000-plus species, only three are vampire bats, limited mostly to Latin America. Vampire bats do not attack humans. They are very small and generally drink the blood of poultry and other animals.
Seventy percent of all bat species eat insects; most of the remaining 30 percent eat fruit, pollen and nector.
Less than one-half of 1 percent of bats contract rabies. However, a grounded bat should never be handled because it may bite in self-defence. Call a wildlife rehabilitator or an animal organization for help.
Bats amount to approximately a quarter of all mammal species. They are found everywhere in the world except in the most extreme desert and polar regions.
Most bats navigate with high-frequency sounds. Using sound alone, they can detect obstacles as fine as a human hair in total darkness. The sophistication of their uniqueecholocation system surpasses current scientific knowledge.
Bats are exceptionally long-lived; some species can live up to 34 years.
Like dolphins, most bats are extremely intelligent. Some bats have a highly complicated social structure that includes over 20 different vocalizations.
Contrary to popular myth, bats can see just fine. They do not become entangled in human hair or attack people.
People are the biggest threat to bat's survival. Bats deserve a break from myths & misinformation because of the vital role they play in our enviornment.
The Mexican free-tailed bats that live in Central Texas during the summer are estimated to consume about 1,000 tons of insects every night.
