Hang with us during #BatWeek! Just another example of a beautiful bat, spotted bats are found in the western United States and are insectivores, feeding mostly on moths. They are said to have the largest ears of any North American bat species and are distinguishable by their jet black fur with white spots and pinkish ears. They’re just one of over 1,300 species of bat worldwide! Each year, Bat Week takes place the last week in October to celebrate the role of bats in nature and all they do for us. Next time someone says bats aren't cute, you can tell them right off the bat that they’re wrong. Photo by Paul Cryan, U.S. Geological Survey. 🦇
