LITTLE BROWN BAT
@i955 National W'fIdIlfs Federation

There are some 1000 kinds of
bats known in the world. OF the
Little Brown Bat there are some
80 recognized subspecies. This bat
ranges through most of North
America and has been found far
out at sea. When taken from its
native home territory, it has been
known to return a distance of over
100 miles.
Because this bat Myotis lucifug-
us is commonly found within its
range sleeping in buildings, resting
in caves and mines or even in hib-
ernation in such spots, it lends it.
self readily to the plots of bird
banders who do not hesitate to put
bird bands on these flying NAM
mails. Such banding practices have
helped us know the habits of Little
Brown Bats better than we know
many other mammals.
The Little Brown Bat is about
8 3-5 inches long with a 1 1-2 inch
tail. The face is hairy; the ears

narrow; the hair, relatively long
and soft and brown. The upper
parts are a bit duller and darker
than the lower parts. The bat just
about equals nickel in weight.
Little Brown Bats breed promis-
cuously in the fall months without
sticking to any one mate. True
fertilization is delayed until spring
by the presence of a plug which
prevents the sperms reaching the
eggs.
CESSATION period is about 56
DAYS and the act of giving birth
takes about u hour. A single
young bat is born and at birth it
weighs about 11s grams.
The young bat nurses for about
g weeks before getting its own
food and during the brooding sea-
son the young and females live
separately from the males. Males
are ready to breed at 10 months Of
age; females at IA months. The
young may be carried by the fe-
male but at 8 weeks of age are
able to fly by themselves.
These bats may fly as much as
80 miles fro mtheir home roost in
search of food. They are most
active during the period of / hour
after sunset or 1 hour before sun
rise. Then flying through trees or
similar danger spots these bats
give off high-pitched sound at
the rate of so per second which is
twice as frequent as the sounds
given when flying free of trouble.
The ecoh from these sounds per-
mits the bats to avoid hitting any
dangerous obstruction.
The sunds are pitched at from
5000 to $4,000 cycles per second
and may be used not only in avoid
ing dangers in flight but possibly
in locating flying food. The food
is insects exclusively.
