Do bats look eerie even in the daytime when it's bright? / myLot

We saw these bats in the wildlife park we visited last weekend. They do may it eerie, even in the bright daylight. Their rat like face, hanging upside down and their weird looking wings all add to the eerie feeling. Do you think bats look scary?

I think the big fruit bats are kind of cool. I saw a zoo program in which the keepers wore special vests so that the bats could hold on. They were quite tame. Have a good weekend.

We had four of them perched on the palms. I found them interesting.

i think they're cute and i feel sad for many people disliking them and thinking they're scary. i grew up with stories like "run from the bats or else they're going to stick to your hair and you'll have to cut it all off" - WHATTT??
