Bats are a type of mammal and the only mammal that flies. Mammals are animals that breathe air, feed milk to their babies, and have fur for at least part of their life. Most give birth to live babies. During the day, bats sleep upside down in protected places. At night some bats fly around catching bugs to eat. Other bats eat fruit, plant parts, and nectar from flowers. Baby bats are called pups and hold onto their mother as she flies around to get food. Bats can live for 30 or more years. Some bat facts: they are not related to mice, help control insect populations, pollinate plants and spread seeds, may gather in large groups at night, won't get tangled in your hair, won't suck your blood, and are not blind.
