About this ebook
What animal sees with its ears and flies with its hands? Bats do. They also do many other strange things.
Bats don’t see very well with their eyes. Instead, they “see” with their ears. Use sonar to find their way, and to find things in the dark.
Find out more about this amazing animal and learn the answers to these questions:
What is sonar?
How many clicks will a bat send out each second?
How many kinds of bats are there?
How many bugs can a bat eat in one hour?
How much blood do vampire bats drink each night?
Learn what a bat looks like, where it lives, what it eats, what eats it, how babies are born, and other fun facts.
Ages 7 to 10
All measurements in American and metric.
