NO BAD THOUGHTS, ONLY BUNNY AND BAT SLIMES

(2/2) I had also accidentally slightly sliced the pupae itself. Not a huge cut but enough that some fluid seeped out. I put it on some tissue to cover the cut but my question is would this be more likely to be a leftover that never hatched and wouldn’t from last fall, or is it likely that this could be a new cocoon and I should be more cautious ( aside from first making sure they’re hatched ) and leave them alone when I find them?

Honduran white bats are members of the bat family Phyllostomatidae, the New World leaf-nosed bats- which you can tell by the leaf-shape on their nose. And you’re right, they do echolocate.

In fact, many fruit-eating bats still need to echolocate, because even though they may not need to use it to hunt (though some fruit-eaters may still nab a bug when they spot one) they still need to navigate through the darkness.

Why would a fruit-eater only come out at night? Well, for many reasons. There’s less competition at night, for starters- most primates and birds have gone to sleep. This means there are also fewer flying predators like hawks. It’s also cooler at night, which can prevent a flying mammal that’s working its metabolism to the limit from overheating.

Many plant species accommodate nocturnal customers by adding things like leaves or flowers that reflect sound in a certain way when fruit, nectar, or pollen is available. They also put out stronger smells that lure in the bats. (One species of pitcher plant uses sound reflection to invite insectivorous bats to come poop in it.) So being diurnal is in now way a prerequisite if you want to eat fruit- I myself enjoy a good late night banana.

I would bet that the white-furred bats people keep mistaking for Honduran white bats are Northern ghost bats, which belong to a totally different family. Easiest way to tell them apart is that ghost bats have no leaf on their nose and instead look like grumpy little goblins.

Maybe people also mistake yellow-winged bats for them (again, from a completely different family) or desert long-eared bats or even ghost false vampire bats, but I think the differences there are more obvious unless you’re really unfamiliar with bats in general.

Would you guys consider Fanime?

ive heard a lot of people say act like the kind of people you wanna attract even if youve gotta pretend for a while and it works lol. I finally got friends my age who ACTED their age and actually cared abt me and my thoughts and happenings.

i know its not the same as fixing them but i had like 8 cavities, decalcification, abnormal formations etc it got to the point where i almost overdosed on pain killers and i started using this sensodyne pronamel toothpaste, it helps slow damage and repair enamel, its done me well so far. i havent had problems with pain since i started using it
