About Bat
Bat Animals - photo wallpapers; Megawallpapers.org: A bat's small, furry body looks somewhat like that of a mouse, and at one time was thought to be a flying mouse. "Flittermouse " is the name once given to this animal. At other times the bat was likened to being a bird. Many fables relate these likenesses--as bird, mouse, and bat. Bat Trivia: In the sixth century B.C. Aesop was said to have related the story of a weasel and a bat. A weasel had caught a bat while hunting for birds. The quick-witted bat claimed he was not a bird, but a bat and was released. A short time later the same bat was captured by a weasel who was hunting for mice. This time the bat claimed he was not a mouse, but a bird and again gained his freedom. (Schober, The Lives of Bats, p. 9). A Roman fable tells a similar story. When the bird council passed a law banning all bats from the kingdom, the bats claimed that they were mice. When the bird council then banned mice, the bats claimed they were birds. Finally, all the beasts became angry with the bats. The bats feared for their lives and thereafter dared to fly only at night. (Schober, The Lives of Bats, p. 10). While early man could not determine which animal species the bat belonged, today we know that a bat is not a mouse nor a bird. Although both mammals, the bat is more closely related to primates than to rodents. Although bats can fly like a bird, they do not have feathers, build nests, or lay eggs. Bats are mammals. Their bodies are covered with fur. They are born live and not hatched from an egg. As babies they are fed milk by their mothers. Bats have lived on Earth for about 50 million years. There are nearly 1,000 species varying in size, color, body features, habitat, and diet living in all parts of the world except for most of the Arctic and all of Antarctica. The most diversity is found in South and Central America, while the most numbers are found in Africa. Forty-three different species are found in the United State alone. Bat Fa...
