Anyone who thinks that bats are dangerous pets is wrong in most cases. In fact, most species of bats are helpful to human beings. Sixty to seventy percent of bat species eat insects. These bats will eat anything that they find as they fly through the air at night. Some people even try to attract bats to their property to help control mosquitoes. Other bats are necessary to the pollination {phấn hoa} of species of plants. Unfortunately, bats are frightening to anyone who believes in the old stories of vampire bats. In reality, only three species of bats feed on blood, usually only from small animals. It is true, however, that vampire bats can spread diseases such as rabies {/’reibiz/ bệnh dại} to other species. Even though many people will continue to dislike and fear bats, it is important to remember that they are an important part of the ecology, especially, in rainforests. Anything that endangers to bats in these areas will also affect the regions’ fragile ecosystems. Anyone who is interested in learning more about bats can visit his or her local library.
