Vampire Bat

The vampire bat has the kind of
face and figure that would never
endear it to humans. Small beady
eyes and a set of needle-like teeth
in an ugly mouth seem to 60 with
its unpleasant habit of living ex-
clusively on a diet of blood. The
vampire, which is not one Of the
larger members of the bat family,
has a wing spread of only little
over a foot-does it's flying at night.
And it isn't fussy about the kind
of blood it drinks, just so the liquid
is fresh and warm. During its noe
turnal flights it may drop with sur
prising lightness on cow, horse,
a dog, a bird-or a human being.
And it's teeth are so small and sharp
that it frequently drinks it's fill with
out waking the victim.
