Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. This presentation discusses attributes that are common to all bats. It identifies the major groups of bats (megabats and microbats), characteristics of each group, their habitats, how they benefit humans, and how they are affected by humans.
  2. Explain that bats are mammals. That is bats are warm-blooded, have backbones, are born alive, covered with hair or fur, and drink milk when new born.Unlike flying squirrels which merely glide, bats fly under their own power. The url for the video is http://youtu.be/DzHHJ75WGSI.
  3. Bat and bird wing images from ("Bats and birds," )
  4. Bat and bird wing images from ("Bats and birds," )
  5. Bat wings look more like a human hand than they do a bird wing. There are 4 long “fingers” with thin skin stretched between them. Click to demonstrate the connections between the hand and the wing.Hand photo Credit: DrAbhijitDatir, Creative Commons. Bat wing image from ("Bats and birds," )
