woah, bats do kinda look like rats with wings
Don’t know if you’re joking, but in french, bats are called “chauve-souris”, which literally means “bald mouse”.
And in German a bat is a Fledermaus, which literally means “wing-mouse”
Ratpenat in Catalan, winged rat.
In Serbian, we just call them blind rat.
In Estonian they’re “nahkhiir”, which means skin + rat.
In my language they are called “ratapinyada” or “ratpenat” from the latin for winged rat.
In my town in the summer, there’s a spot where just after sunset you can see the flocks of swallows retreating from the fields while flocks of bats arrive from the other side. It is cool to see.
This sounds sooo cool
Rats in Germany have discovered how to catch bats and eat them by staying near a cave entrance and grabbing them out of the air
meanwhile, french mice:
“look! they’re bald!”
pffft angels? I don’t believe in made up mumbo-jumbo that was clearly a flock of Point Pleasant Mothrats
Flying demons more like.
