What do bats represent?

People often use the word "birds and beasts" to describe birds and mammals, but this statement is sometimes not necessarily correct, because some birds can't fly, such as ostriches, emus, kiwis and penguins. There are also some mammals that can't walk, such as whales living in the ocean. Bats can't walk on the ground like ordinary terrestrial mammals, but they can fly in the air like birds.

Bats are the only animals that can really fly. Although they don't have the feathers and wings like birds, and their flying ability is much worse than that of birds, their forelimbs are very developed, and their upper arms, forearms, metacarpals and phalanges are particularly long. From the end of phalanges to the humerus, sides, hind legs and tail, a thin and hairy soft and tough skin membrane is supported, forming a unique flying organ of bats-pterodactyl. Bats have well-developed pectoral muscles, keel-like processes in sternum and well-developed clavicle, all of which are related to their special sports methods.

It can fly well, but it needs to glide when it takes off, and it is difficult to fly again once it lands. When flying, the hind legs extend backwards to balance.

Bats generally have the habit of hibernating. During hibernation, their metabolic ability is reduced, their breathing and heartbeat are only a few times per minute, their blood flow is slowed down, and their body temperature is reduced to be consistent with the ambient temperature. However, their hibernation is not deep, and they sometimes excrete and eat during hibernation, and they can return to normal immediately after waking up. Their fertility is not high, and there is a phenomenon of "delayed fertilization", that is, fertilization does not occur during mating before hibernation. * * * Overwintering in the female reproductive tract, after waking up in the next spring, mating females begin to ovulate and fertilize, and then get pregnant and give birth.

Bat is an ancient and specialized branch of mammals, named after its forelimbs have special wings. It is distributed all over the world except the North and South Poles and some ocean islands, with the most species and quantities in tropical and subtropical regions. Because of their ugly appearance and nocturnal habits, they always make people feel terrible. The original meaning of their names in foreign languages is frivolous mice. But in China, because the word "bat" is homophonic with the word "fu", it can still be loved by people, and its image is painted on New Year pictures.

There are more than 900 species of bats in the world, and there are about 8/kloc-0 species in China, which is the second largest mammal group after rodents. It can be roughly divided into two categories: big bats and small bats. Bats are distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the Old Hemisphere. They are large in size and primitive in body structure, including Muscidae, 1.

Small bats are distributed in tropical and temperate regions of the Old Hemisphere and the Western Hemisphere. They are small in size and have more specialized body structures, including more than ten families, such as Batidae, hipposideridae, Batidae, Haemophagidae and Batidae. Bats have various eating habits. Some species like nectar and fruit, others like to eat fish, frogs and insects, suck animal blood and even eat other bats.

Generally speaking, big bats generally feed on fruits or nectar, while small bats mostly prey on insects. Bats that feed on insects have echolocation systems to varying degrees, so they are called "live radars".

With the help of this system, they can fly and catch food in complete darkness, use echolocation under a lot of interference, and send out ultrasonic signals without affecting normal breathing. There are structures called "nasal lobes" on the nose and mouth of their heads, and there are complex special skin folds around them. This is a peculiar ultrasonic device, which has the function of emitting ultrasonic waves and can continuously emit high-frequency ultrasonic waves.

If you encounter obstacles or flying insects, these ultrasonic waves can be reflected back and then received by their extraordinary big auricles, so that the feedback information can be analyzed in their tiny brains. This kind of ultrasonic detection has high sensitivity and resolution, so that they can not only identify the direction and locate their own flight path according to the echo, but also identify different insects or obstacles for effective avoidance or pursuit.

Bats can fly freely in the air with accurate echolocation and incomparably soft skin membrane, and even fly in a dexterous curve, constantly changing the direction of ultrasonic waves to prevent insects from interfering with their information systems and trying to escape. Like other animals, many bats are becoming less and less in nature and tend to be extinct.

Poisons and wood protectants used to kill insects kill them during hibernation, and many wrong ideas also make humans kill them in large numbers. Some kinds of hollow trees were cut down, and the ruins were torn down or rebuilt tightly, so they could not survive.

Bats play an important role in maintaining the ecological balance of nature. All kinds of insect-eating bats can kill a large number of mosquitoes, moths, scarabs, nuns and other pests, and can prey on more than 3000 in one night, which is beneficial to human beings. The excrement collected by bats is also good fertilizer, which is very useful for agricultural production.

The processed bat dung is called "night sand" and is a traditional Chinese medicine. Bat is still an important object to study the orientation, location and dormancy of animals, and the secret of its radiation technology has not been fully understood. Humans only know what bats can do, but they don't know how they do it, so it is imperative to save those endangered species.
