There are many facts that we do not know about bats. We do not know any more than that the bat lives in the abandoned buildings and it is ugly face and sucking blood, but there are exciting facts and information about the bat will make you change your view of it.
Bats give birth to a small one in a year as there are bats which are called bats and they are the largest bats, bats are considered the only mammals that fly as they search for food through the echo of sound as there are bats live to eat fruit.
1- 25% of mammals are bats:
There are approximately 1,100 known species of bats worldwide, and this makes nearly a quarter of all mammals in bats exist.
This means that if all mammals are placed in groups of four individuals, one of each group will be a bat. In fact, among mammals, rodents, such as rats, mice and squirrels, have many species. Bats may look a bit like rodents but are actually closer to monkeys Limes and humans.
There are two main types of bats, large bats and small bats. Most large bats have relatively large sizes, some have small sizes, and large bats feed on fruit and nectar, making them important pollinators and seed propagators by moving from one flower to another and bats Flowers help in producing fruits the same way bees and birds buzz, and when the bat eat the seeds fall down these seeds that grow and become new trees.
2 - the largest bat like flying foxes and the smallest like a hummingbird:
They are actually the biggest bats in the world, and some of the biggest bats are called the Golden Flying Fox. The flying fox has wings of about 6 feet or 1.8 meters long. It weighs about 3 lbs, about 1.4 kg, and large foxes fly from Southeast Asia and from India. They are called flying foxes because they look like foxes. Flying foxes have small ears and very large eyes.
The smallest bats are known as bee bats, because with their closed wings about one inch long, 2.5 cm long. Even with their wings spread, they are still small. Their wings are 6 inches long, 15 cm long. Some scientists believe it is one of the smallest mammals in the world.
3_ Bats are the only mammals that fly:
Everyone knows that bats can fly, but do you know they are the only mammals that are able to fly? Squirrels can fly in the air, but they do not really fly it from tree to tree by stretching its body.
Bat wings are her hands, and between the fingers of the bat there are thin membranes of the skin, and by moving the fingers can bat to fly in the air for long periods, bat wings that resemble the hand is the muscles of the flight, which is linked to the shoulders of the bat and not thorax that gives the bat full control On their wings during the flying process, the bats can fly very fast up to 60 miles or 97 kilometers per hour, making them faster than the owl.
4_ Most bats use Echo Locator to find food:
Bats and whales are mammals, each using his or her own way of finding food, or finding their way simply in the dark, by locating the echo, and locating the echoes is the process that begins when the bats emit sounds through their noses. , Because the bats produce sounds that are highly skilled, and humans can hear them. These sounds are like birds or clicks. Bats can reach up to twenty of these beeps per second, and then wait for the bat to hear the sound. About the time between audio output Hear the echo tells the bat a lot of things, such as the nearest tree place, or where insects can be Mokhtboh.
5- Bats eat a lot but do not get fat:
The bats spend most of the night looking for food and then eat it, the little eats a lot of food, the brown bat one can eat more than a thousand mosquitoes in one hour, the vampire bats can drink 28 g of blood in 20 minutes, Many bats can eat up to twice their body weight per night, yet they can not find a bat that is obese, because bats that have obesity will not be able to fly, metabolize or metabolism in bat fast , Meaning that the food turns into energy quickly, and can digest everything t REBA eat in 20 minutes or less, and this is a short time for humans who have three days to taking far digest meal.
6- The bat gives birth to one puppy a year:
Young bats are called pups, and female adult bats give birth to one of these pups every year. This is a strange breed because most small animals like mice have a lot of young ones, and also many small birds lay many eggs a year.
In the rare cases, the bat is dragged in one or two cases, because the mother keeps her flight for food during pregnancy, and even after birth she carries the puppy on her back while flying because he is too small to fly. If she has two or three puppies You will not be able to fly and this will eventually lead to death.
After the birth, the baby feeds on milk, like other mammals. When the young person is strong enough, he tries to fly and leaves the mother to look for his own food.
7- Live bats for a long time:
Another thing about small animals is that they do not live long. Most insects live for a few weeks or months, some live for a day or two, the mouse lives for about three years, and the same is true for a house bird. However, 20-30 years) and is longer than the period of the dogs, as the bat has a strong immune system capable of carrying a lot of injuries.
Bats may carry some diseases but are not affected by them. Scientists believe that flying helps bats stay healthy, which proves that regular exercise can do wonders for health.
8. Bats love to keep themselves clean:
Some bats are thought to be dirty and teasing, but bats like cats are clean, they can clean themselves with licks, and there are no dirt or waste related to their bodies. When the bat hangs its head down and its man goes up and wants to eliminate its need, Again back to normal head down, bats are considered something worth having as it is an effective fertilizer.
9. Not all bats live in caves:
We see on television that bats live in the caves hanging their heads down, with glowing eyes, but in fact the bats sleep in the dark caves during the day, and some enter the winter stage for several months, yet not all the bats live in caves, some sleep On trees and others inside houses and abandoned buildings, others hiding behind the spider's net, and others making a tent from tree leaves.
10- Some bats have an eccentric face:
Most people agree that bats are not attractive natural creatures. Most of them have a hideous image and some have a horrifying image. There are bats of horseshoe with a nose like horseshoe. These bats have wrinkles on their faces. There are fruit bats that have a tubular nose and there are bats Which has bulges in the eyes, and a horn over her nose, and all these strange stages help the bat to determine the place by echo, and the more bat the more difficult the more efficient.
