Product Information

Bats often have a rodentlike or foxlike muzzle, but in many the face has a pushed-in puglike appearance.

This may serve to introduce young to hibernation sites, signal reproduction in adults and allow adults to breed with those from other groups.In addition to echolocating prey, bat ears are sensitive to sounds made by their prey, such as the fluttering of moth wings. Patterns of daily torpor and day-roost selection by male and female big brown bats ( Eptesicus fuscus)".

In general, megabats have longer snouts, larger eye sockets and smaller ears, giving them a more dog-like appearance, which is the source of their nickname of "flying foxes". The projecting portion of the external ear (the pinna) is usually extremely large and often is funnel-shaped. The largest bats are the flying foxes, with the giant golden-crowned flying fox ( Acerodon jubatus) reaching a weight of 1.

Microbats may use their vision for orientation and while travelling between their roosting grounds and feeding grounds, as echolocation is effective only over short distances. The fastest bat, the Mexican free-tailed bat ( Tadarida brasiliensis), can achieve a ground speed of 160km/h (100mph). Smell is probably used as an aid in locating fruit and flowers and possibly, in the case of vampire bats, large vertebrates.

In a few species, such as the yellow-winged bat and spectral bat, adult males and females form monogamous pairs. Nova Scotia, Quebec, Ontario, and New Brunswick have witnessed identical die offs, with the Canadian government making preparations to protect all remaining bat populations in its territory.Promiscuity, where both sexes mate with multiple partners, exists in species like the Mexican free-tailed bat and the little brown bat. Once you have donated all six pieces of the Large Animal fossil, Professor Snail will reward you with six Golden Walnuts.
