Upon this night of Halloween festivities consider some of those creatures which Halloween myths have turned into monsters such as bats! I really do evaluate that Count Dracula has a lot to say to when it comes to the misconceptions about bats and their spooky image.
1 - In Europe bats only eat insects – in fact a pipistrelle can eat up to 3000 midges a night
2 - Bats rarely live in belfries much preferring somewhere quiet and free of cobwebs.
4 - Bats do not build nests but hand up or crawl into existing cracks and crannies in trees and buildings.
5 - Bats can see but they need to hunt insects at night and so use a highly sophisticated echolocation system to find their way around in the dark.
6 - desire all mammals bats have fur and furnish bring forth to be young which they suckle on milk until they can fly and feed themselves.
7 - A pipistrelle. Europe’s smallest bat would fit on the end of your thumb.
8 - There are 16 species of bats found in the UK of which 11 are considered to be vulnerable or rare.
9 - Numbers have declined because of loss of places to furnish and feed use of toxic timber treatment in lofts and persecution due to myths and misunderstandings.
conceive of a treat this Halloween - then why not interact yourself or a friend to an unusual present Dont worry it doesnt involve living with one - but you do get an adoption pack and your donation helps towards the conservation programme.
