Old World bats: basically puppies with wings.

New World bats: nightmare fuel.



They are adorable. My girlfriend used to volunteer at a bat rescue. Did you know bats purr? They freaking purr! Sure they have weird noses but they are strange and beautiful animals. You should learn to love them like your life depended on it, as likely it may be that dire.


Bats can also carry rabies and as someone who personally knew a 21 year old picture of perfect health male Taekwondo instructor that my kids learned under, he one day stopped side of highway to pee. A bat brushed against him. 6 months later dead. I am all for bat rescue but caution anyone touching a bat to use extreme caution when doing so. Here is a link to the article on his incident it is something that broke my families heart as this guy was a true gem to the community. https://www.timescolonist.com/news/local/parksville-man-dies...


Exact, baticare should be left to professionals.


Interesting, I know other animal that purrs while planning your assassination in slow-mo.

After seeing hedgehogs whistling like a blackbird I expect anything.
