Itβs a bird... It's a plane... it's
#BatWeek! π¦
From deserts to forests to caves, bats play a vital role in keeping our ecosystems healthy, pollinating plants, dispersing seeds, and eating thousands of insects each night. πβ¨
Though they might have a spooky reputation, these nighttime flyers are true environmental heroes. The next time you see one swoop by, give them a silent cheer for all the work they do behind the scenes!
