Bat Types
Bats are divided into two main types: megabats and microbats. Megabats, also known as fruit bats, are larger and primarily feed on fruits, nectar, and flowers. They have excellent eyesight and rely less on echolocation compared to their smaller counterparts.
Microbats are smaller and typically use echolocation to navigate and hunt insects. They have a diverse diet that includes moths, beetles, and other small creatures. Microbats are more common and can be found in various habitats around the world, playing a crucial role in controlling insect populations.
