BAT FOODS

Over 900 different kinds of bats in the world eat many things.

 Fruit-eating bats like ripe fruit.
 As they fly they drop seeds
which can grow into new trees.

Bats, like bees, eat nectar and pick up pollen on their nose.
When they go from flower to flower they leave the pollen behind,
 That is how they help make new plants.

Frog eating bats use their eyes. They also use sounds to
help find their food.

Fishing bats grab little fish out of the water with their claws.  They use echolocation to find fish.

Most vampire bats drink
the of birds.  One kind of vampire bat
also drinks the blood of other mammals like cattle.  

70 Percent of bats eat insects.  One bat can eat up to
1,200 night flying insects in just one hour.
This helps all of us.
