Animal of the Day!

Greater Bulldog Bat (Noctilio leporinus)

(Photo in public domain)

Conservation Status- Least Concern

Habitat- Central America; South America

Size (Weight/Length)- 12 cm; 70 cm wingspan

Diet- Insects, Fish; Crustaceans

Cool Facts- The greater bulldog bat has the most unique hunting behavior of any bat. Circling over a pond, these bats use echolocation to sense ripples in the water from jumping fish. The greater bulldog bat then rakes its claws along the surface of the water as it flies only inches about the water. Once a fish is caught, the bat curls its tail up to secure the wriggly prey in a pouch. Females live in small groups with a dominant male at the head. Sadly, these bats are targeted for extermination due to their ability to carry rabies. Water pollution also threatens their main food sources. Despite the odds, these bats are still going strong. 

Rating- 12/10 (Fish fear them, women want them.)

chart i made about what LPS each undersider would be (criteria being if i was 10 and i was playing worm which LPS would i choose). can and will be changed at any time on account of too many of them

#lps #wormblr #<--i think is the right one <--doesnt remember which tag i used before #explanations: #taylor is a bug however i couldnt find a satisfactory lps bug either because their colors were off or they looked not like her. anteater #looks like her but is not a bug so it's low on the list #rachel: self explanatory. could go with the other bulldog mold but this one was better. otherwise perfect fit #brian: perfect fit i think. color scheme + mold #lisa: color scheme + species fit. that dachshund mold in particular i like for her but need to ruminate on it more. fox is good but not #yellow enough for me #alec: vibes. leaning toward sugar glider i think #aisha: both are perfect fits but leaning toward bat #low pitched finite woofing

Are there any bats that grab stuff with their hind claws like birds do?

For context, I often have dreams about turning into a bat monster and causing chaos.

The monster bat has had many traits I thought were unrealistic enough to be monster traits, but turn out to coincidentally be traits of a real bat species. I'm able to grab stuff like a bird in these dreams, and I want to know if that's also an accidental real bat trait.

Well....bats roost by grabbing on with their hind legs like birds do (just upside down), so just about every single species of bat.

But if you mean more like how hawks catch their prey with their talons...yes, several species do. A specific example that comes to mind is Noctilio leporinus, also known as the greater bulldog bat or fisherman bat, which uses it claws to hold on to the fish it eats.

As for sceficically grabbing birds though...there is at least one bat species that is known to eat birds (among other things), Vampyrum spectrum (aka the spectral bat), but it doesn't use it hind claws to grab stuff, it uses its thumb claws on its wings.

Monster pet menagerie!

The pets were one of the best things about Monster High and I was sad when they stopped doing them for the line. What’s neat is that there are variants to certain pets like like Freshwater Lagoona’s fish is purple, not pink (and has a blue bowl), Dustin and Crescent get a different look for Freak du Chic, Crossfade is a different color depending on which side he comes with and Cushion’s quills coincide with her owner’s hair color. Also I have no idea how I got so many doubles, esp hedgehogs!

They did kind of try with the reboot; Ghoul’s Beast friend CLeo came with this adorable kitten! Unfortunately she sticks out amongst the original pets as she’s SO much bigger. Oh well, still cute:)
