They take no fall damamage. You could throw them out of a jet and they'd hit the ground and just shake it off.

Those bats were teasing that rat. Maybe the bats will evolve to be less stupid.

Do we really want "brats"? Because this is how we get "brats".

Watched this program on the speculative evolution of Bats the other night. Some cool stuff

I had a rabid bat interact with me - attacked me. I killed it and it tested positive for rabies. It was a Sunday afternoon, and given the time, I suspected rabies as I was fighting it off.

Science takes a while sometimes.
From observation to crunching numbers to writing to manuscript submittal to revisions to publication.
You can check out their publication here at Science Direct.
I haven’t read much of the article, but I did see that rats were using a platform in the caves that hole bat-counting equipment. Maybe they ought to figure out a change there.
