Galapagos Red Bat

Interesting facts

• Red Bats often hang upside down by one foot from trees, mimicking leaves to evade predators.
• Female Red Bats can give birth to as many as 4 pups at once.
• Young Red Bats can't fly until they're about 6 weeks old, so their mothers carry them during this period.
• If you encounter a Red Bat on the ground, avoid touching it as they may bite, potentially causing infection.
