According to the fossilrecord, bats were soaring in the sky at least 55 million years ago. These ancient fliers, saysevolutionary biologist Nancy Simmons of New Yorks American Museum of Natural History, werevirtually indistinguishable from today echolocating bats. Though to look at them most resemblerodents, bats closest cousins are primates. Modern bats are amazingly diverse, about 1,000 speciesaccount for nearly a fourth of all mammal species. The only known group of flying mammals, theyrange in size from Thailands tiny bumblebee bat, weighing almost nothing, to Indonesias giantflying fox, with wingspans of nearly 5 ft. Many bats feed on insects, while others prefer fruit, nectar,or pollen. A few feast on fish, rodents, and blood. Contrary to legend, however, vampire bats, whichdwell in Latin America, suck the blood of grazing cattle and horses, not sleeping humans.

Essentially docile, bats play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance. For one thing, theyprotect crops from marauding insects. The 20 million Mexican free-tailed bats that roots in BrackenCave near San Antonio, Texas, from spring to fall consume 250 tons of insects every night as theyswarm to altitudes of more than 10.000ft.
