Bats are one of the most fascinating creatures the earth has to offer. The only mammals with true flight. They are found on every continent except Antarctica. They eat everything nature has to offer. They are also one of the most misunderstood and maligned animals on Earth, for no good reason. Join us to discover what makes bats amazing and why you need not fear them but celebrate them!
