Although vampire bats feed primarily on domestic animals, they have been known to feed on sleeping humans on rare occasions. The pipistrelle, the smallest of the European bats, has been found lurking in many strange places including vases, under floorboards, and between the panes of double glass.
Vampire bats have chemicals in their saliva that prevent the blood they are drinking from clotting.
They consume 5 teaspoons of blood each day. Bats make up nearly one quarter of the mammal species throughout the world. The bulldog bat feeds on fish. It hunts them using echolocation, a built in form of sonar that lets the bat use sound waves to locate its prey. The vampire bat has been known to transmit rabies to livestock and to man.
