The mystery affliction, reported in New York, Vermont and Massachusetts, is dubbed “white-nose syndrome” because many affected bats had visible halos of white fungus around their faces. Researchers increasingly suspect the fungus is not a primary cause of the die-offs, but a symptom of a larger, unidentified problem. The syndrome clearly is a major and imminent threat to North American bats, and until the cause is identified, we can do little to counter it.

Myotis sodalis USFWS photo Introduction to Bats Bats may be the most misunderstood animals in the United States, although as consumers of enormous numbers of insects, they rank among the most beneficial. Almost all United States bats, and 70 percent of the bat species worldwide, feed almost exclusively on insects and are thus extremely beneficial. In fact, bats are the only major predators of night-flying insects. One bat can eat between 600 and 1,000 mosquitoes and other insect pests in just one hour (Organization for Bat Conservation) While most United States bat species are insectivorous, bats in other parts of the world feed on a variety of items in addition to insects. Many species feed primarily on fruit, while several types feed on nectar and pollen. Fruit bats perform an extremely important function as seed dispersers.

I can tiptoe around them or jump over them, but I must not touch the hot lava. It’s a variation on the old sidewalk-stepping game of “step on a crack, break your mother’s back.” And it’s alive and well in the Yankees’ clubhouse. When Joba Chamberlain walks through the middle of the room, from his locker on the far wall to the door leading to the dugout, he cannot walk a straight line. That’s because a giant interlocking NY adorns the carpet, and Chamberlain will not let his feet touch it.

A : The little brown bat, one of the most common North American bat species, can catch and eat as many as 1,200 mosquitoes in one hour. The famous colony of Mexican free-tail bats that lives underneath the Congress Avenue Bridge in Austin, Texas, will eat up to 30,000 pounds of insects in a single night. Bats really stand out in the animal world. They are the only mammals that can fly, and they live much of their lives hanging upside down. Most species are only active at night, dusk and dawn, spending their days in dark caves. Many bats have developed adaptations that let them find their way (and their prey) in complete darkness. Bats are also well-known for sucking blood , though in actuality, there are only a few specific species that feed this way.

Bats are the only mammals that actively fly. These animals are of great benefit to humans and the environment. Bats are mammals! Like most mammals, including people, bats have fur, are born live, and nurse milk from their mother's bodies. Bats belong to a group of flying mammals called Chiroptera (Ki-ROP-ter-a). This is a Greek word for "hand-wing." They do not have feathers but their wings are formed from their skin being stretch over their fingers. Bats are nocturnal creatures, that means they only come out at night. During the day bats roost in tree holes, caves and people's houses. Bats : Pictures taken by me What does a Bat look like?

Home Skip to content Home News History ... UNC Assistive Technology Motivation Spatial information is often presented in the form of maps that viewers actively explore to learn about an area. People who cannot see cannot share the benefits of such a visual representation, and have traditionally relied on audio descriptions, tactile maps, guidance from others, and even trial and error when learning the layout of a region. On-going assistive technology research has yielded a number of promising techniques to help people who have visual impairments plan daily walks and get directions, but little has been done to promote the same kind of spatial awareness provided by visual maps. The Blind Audio Tactile Mapping System (BATS) project focuses on the latter area of research by helping people without sight access and explore spatial information.

The Topic: Bats If you need to find websites about individual types or species of bats, then click here ( Bat Species ) to connect to our companion webpage. There you will find lots of websites - - too many to fit here. Easier - Bats are the only mammals that fly. They have furry bodies and thin, leathery wings. Bats hang upside down when they are resting. Bats sleep during the day and come out at night to feed. Bats find their way by making high-pitched squeaks and clicks. The echoes of these noises are picked up by sensitive ears and used to guide them around. Harder - Bats dwell in caves, attics, crevices, or other sheltered places. A few species live in trees. Bats seem uncommon because they roost in dark habitats and come out only at night; therefore, they are rarely seen. Night creatures are called nocturnal. Over 900 species of bats live in all parts of the world except Antarctica and the Arctic. Most bats are found in the tropic regions, where they can find food the year around. About 40 species of bats live in Canada and the United States.
