We’ve brought out some of our cutest chiroptera for Bat Appreciation Day. And what’s not to appreciate? Offering both pest management and plant pollination, these flying mammals are pretty amazing.
These particular bats are Salvin's Big-eyed bats (Chiroderma salvini), as illustrated in the Mammalia volume of Biologia Centrali-Americana (1879-1882) available in the Biodiversity Heritage Library.
