It looks like a cheap, fuzzy Halloween decoration in the most cheesy way possible, as if someone took the model of a regular boring black bat and recolored it in the “classic” Halloween color scheme to make it look “spooky”. If I’d encounter such a creature in a videogame or movie, I’d laugh at the absurdity. It looks so fake.
Nope. They’re real.
Instead of big swarms, they usually live alone or in family units of three during part of the year—an adult male and a female and their one offspring. The bright and broken coloration of these bats may be a form of camouflage to protect them, as they have been reported to blend in with dried leaves and flowers when they roost. They’re insectivores who hunt at night.
Nature, you’re weird sometimes.
Did you have to go so hard on the little guy lol
I can picture one of them reading this, all happy to at least see someone writing about them, only to get devastated from the get go.
Hmm … you’re right, it does sound a bit too rude. I hereby humbly apologize to any and all bats, flying foxes and other mammals capable of flight who might be reading this and are currently trying to figure out how to type a reply. Y’all are cool. Weird, but cool. ;)
