You know that some birds and bugs can fly. But did you know that there’s another anima
l that can do this? It has wings like a bird. But it doesn’t look like a bird. It’s a bat.Bats have fur mostly all over, but not on their wings. Some bats have black, brown, red, or yellow fur. These live in dark places, like caves. Other bats live in trees. Many of these bats are part white and part another color. Some of them are green.There are more than 900 kinds of bats. The biggest ones are called flying foxes. Their heads look like little brown fox heads. The wings of these bats can be over 5 feet across. But other kinds can be very little. The wings of the smallest bats are only 1/2 foot across.In the day, bats hang by their feet and sleep a lot. At times they clean their fur. Some of the time they care for their babies. Mostly they sleep. But when the sun goes down, they begin to move. At night bats fly around. They try to find food. Bats eat fruit, bugs, plants, fish, and flowers.Some bats use their good hearing to find things in the dark. First they make sounds. The sounds jump off anything around the bats. Then these sounds come back, so the bats can hear just where the thing is. They can fly right to it. That’s how they find things to eat.
