EFA TREASURY: what do bats eat ?

"A single little brown bat can eat up to 1000 mosquitoes in a single hour, and is one of the world's longest-lived mammals for its size, with life spans of almost 40 years." Defenders of Wildlife

70% of bats eat insects such as mosquitos, scorpions, centipedes... others eat nectar, pollen, fruit and then some eat frogs, fish, rodents, birds and... other bats.

Like so many species today...
bats are struggling to survive...
their biggest threat is people,
wind turbines and white-nose syndrome.
