Title: BATS


1
BATS
  • By Matthew Room 35 Grade 2

  • Bats are good hunters. When we bother a mom
    bat, she flies away from her babies. The babies
    cant get milk. A lot of babies is called a
    nursery. A bat makes a noise that bounces into
    an insect and it bounces back to the bat. This
    tells the bat where the bug is hiding.

  • A little brown bat can catch 150 insects in 15
    minutes. Bats sleep in the morning and have
    breakfast at night. Bats help farmers. Bats eat
    bugs that eat crops. Bats have hook claws to hang
    up side down.

  • Bats clean themselves with their claws. In China
    bats are considered good luck. The bats wings
    have long finger bones. Bats wings are like
    webbed hands. A flying bat can move its wings
    much like you can move your fingers.

5
  • The gray bat can gobble up 3000 insects in one
    night. Braken Cave in Texas is the home to 20
    million Mexican free-tailed bats. Together they
    munch 250 tons of insects every night. Vampire
    bats live in parts of Mexico and Central and
    South America.

  • A bats body parts are the tail, tail membrane,
    wing membrane, thumb, second finger, third
    finger, fourth finger, and the fifth finger.
    There are more then 980 bats in the world. Bats
    dont lay eggs. Each night a bat chomps half its
    own weight in bugs.
