Bats

Bats are often seen as creatures of the night, and their nocturnal habits, sharp teeth, and ability to fly have made them a popular symbol in gothic literature and art. In fact, the vampire, one of the most iconic figures in gothic horror, is often depicted as a bat-like creature.

Beyond their association with the macabre, bats are also special for a number of other reasons. They are the only mammals that can truly fly, and they play an important role in the ecosystem by eating insects. Bats are also highly social creatures, and they often live in large colonies.

While bats may be seen as creatures of the night, they are also fascinating and important animals. They are a vital part of our ecosystem, and they deserve our respect.
