Who says all bats are eerie, gloomy, cave-dwelling creatures that hunt down gullible humans to entangle themselves in their hair or sever their necks with vampire fangs? With their beautiful, non-threatening looks, these fluffy, adorable Honduran white bats are shattering outdated misconceptions about bats. There are just six species of white bats that are now recognized, including the Honduran white bat. These are not the bats who live in eerie attics and musty caves. They fashion plant leaves into improvised tents to create their own shelter. Furthermore, as the Honduran white bat is a frugivore and exclusively consumes fruit, they won’t draw blood from you.
