  • Bats are nocturnal or active at night.
  • Baby bats are called pups.
  • A group of bats is called a colony.
  • Bats use a skill called echolocation to “see” at night.

Why are bats so helpful?

  • Bats eat pests and insects that bother us like mosquitos (some bats eat other things such as nectar and fruit)
