how are people scared of bats :(
#theres a lot of misinformation about bats and it makes me sad :(#like did you guys know that despite bats being known for having rabies only 0.5% of bats actually do#and bats dont bite...not even vampire bats do#tho it is more reasonable to be afraid of vampire bats as the rabies rate is 10% and they do drink blood#but they only live in central and south america and mainly go after cows#and when bats swoop down at you theyre actually just eating the bugs that are trying to bite you#bats are actually really good for the environment too#if there werent any bats a lot of really good fruit wouldnt be able to grow#no bats? no mango banana guava avovados or tequila#and reduced amount of rice citrus strawberries coffee chocolate and cotton#people also study bats' echolocation to find new innovative ways to help blind people#and bats arent affected by many deadly diseases and they have a very low risk of cancer and their dna is similar to humans#this means that bats could possibly be the key to curing cancer as well as slowing down the progression of aging#and by that i mean that it could delay the symptoms of getting older#such as aches and pains memory issues risk of certain diseases and physical changes#idrc about changes in appearance that much but its interesting#anyways
