Common Vampire Bat (Desmodus rotundus)

Posted on Oct 30, 2014

Very appropriate for Halloween Eve, this Common Vampire Bat (Desmodus rotundus) does indeed feed on blood…but they would never be coming after you! Unless you are some sort of livestock in Central or South America you will be just fine. Photographed by RTPI Affiliate Sean Graesser for the Meet Your Neighbours global diversity project.
