found an old google doc i made of my favorite bat species. you should suggest more species for my list pls
ID:
A post describing 6 types of bats as follows:
Northern Ghost bat
Angry face
Primarily eats moths and apparently likes to sing while doing so. Fuckin superb you funky little ghost bat
Desert long-eared bat
What's he so happy about???
Apparently they get scorpion stings to the face a lot but it's okay because they just don't care and swoop down to eat them whole (stinger and poison sack included) off the ground anyways
So actually he's probably happy about all the scorpion murder he commits
Pallid bat
Ears
Greater false vampire bat
Can apparently eat like anything. Bugs? Yes. Frogs? Yes. Birds? You bet.
Like straight up cannibalizes bats smaller than it.
Kind of a killing machine overall really
Wrinkle faced bats
Ugly but full of love
has a flap of skin they use as a facemask when they nap. Fancy.
Their weird skull structure lets them eat a wider range of food than most other bats. So that's rad.
Frog eating bat.
They eat frogs
Fun at parties. Always brings fun food (frogs)
End ID.
(thank you @friendlybat for the ID!!)

Yk what makes makes me sad? That when looking up "cute bats" most of them are flying foxes.
Where is my love for "ugly" bats? The cute lil creatures? I understand why people like flying foxes more cuz they look like puppies, but HAVE YOU SEEN THE LITTLE BOOP NOSES

THE NOSES ARE SO BOOPABLE

Apparently vampire bats give bloody kisses to feed eachother in times of need.
A bit more refined sketch, I think eventually I want to incorporate more red and veins, to portray their community, care and connectedness to eachother in a bat colony, gosh bats are amazing aren't they! :D

Laszlo is a nathusius pipistrelle bc they are teeny and actually SING to attract mates!
Tumblr media
Nadja is a geoffroys bat (which is hilarious bc...Jeff) bc they really like olive plantations for some reason and also do a lot of screaming
Tumblr media
Nandor is a greater noctule bat, big enough to eat birds but a face cute enough you'd let him

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
Vampire bats are blood-suckers, but they’re not selfish; those that don’t find enough to eat will groom their colony mates in exchange for regurgitated blood. Researchers have also observed other bats feeding new mothers for up to two weeks after they give birth.

Idk what morbius is so I googled it and I found this wiki page and
Tumblr media
Now I'm no bat expert but I'm pretty sure this means Morbius wakes up to find a whole colony of bats grooming him because that's what bats do.
Also a vampire bat thing, they evacuate their whole bladder while feeding to maintain fly weight, so I can only assume that when his little bat friends aren't licking him clean and potentially giving him rabies, Morbius is eating people and peeing down his own leg.
I can accept that there's a vampire but the second you put irl vampire bats in the mix I expect you to not slander them. Vampire bats already get a bad rap they don't need to be dragged down by Jared Leto

the vampire bats series is amazing. have you ever considered the canon bruce meeting this aus bruce and him just. giving up because apparently there is a universe where he is actually a vampire and the rumours ended up being kinda true
Thank you!! I’m working on the next installment!
Poor Bruce, he’d just be like *deep sigh*
If I remember right it’s Clark who often has something to do with those vampire rumors so he’d be like “darn, he was right”
