That was a journey. At a glance, I thought it was a picture of a squid on the back seat of a car. Then when I looked my brain was trying to tell me it was a black cat, but that didn’t work. Then we finally got to bat :)

Bats are cool

Bats are the only true flying mammals. There are over 1,400 species of bats, and they can be found on nearly every part of the planet. Not only are they cute, they are also important…

Studying how bats use echolocation has helped scientists develop navigational aids for the blind. Without bats’ pollination, seed dispersal, and pest control we wouldn’t have bananas, avocados, mangoes, agave, or cacao… that’s right, bats bring us tequila and chocolate!

Found a bat in need of help?

Do not handle it with bare hands! Bats can carry rabies.
Here’s a map of worldwide rescues and temporary care instructions.
Bats should never be kept as pets: Here’s why.

Celebrate bats with us!
