Bat

The Bat is a common name for a group of mammals that belong to the order Chiroptera, which means "hand-wing" in Greek.

They are very diverse, with more than 1,300 species living in almost every part of the world, except for the polar regions.

Bats can live in a variety of habitats, depending on their food preferences and roosting needs.

Bats that eat insects usually hunt at night and roost in dark places during the day, such as caves, trees, buildings, bridges, or mines.

Bats that eat fruits or nectar usually roost in trees or plants, and may be active during the day or night.

Vampire bats that eat blood are found only in Central and South America, and roost in caves or hollow trees.

Some bats migrate to warmer areas in the winter, while others hibernate in their roosts.

The Bat is a creature of the night
He likes to fly and give a fright
He has no feathers, only fur
And makes a high-pitched sound like "brrr"

He hangs upside down from a tree
And sleeps all day, you'll rarely see
He wakes up when the sun goes down
And hunts for bugs all over town

He has a face that's kind of cute
But also looks like a hairy snoot
He has big ears and tiny eyes
And wings that help him soar the skies

He's not a bird, he's not a rat
He's something else, he is the Bat!
