🦇 Bats are important for our ecosystem! 🦇

🦇 Bats are essential for environmental health. Their droppings, called guano, provide nutrients for soil. One bat can devour 1,000 small insects in one hour reducing our reliance on pesticides. Most importantly, bats pollinate and disperse seeds for plants giving us fruits, nuts, medicines, fibers, dyes, and agave cacti. So, if you enjoy tequila, thank a bat!
**Please never handle a bat with your bare hands! They may carry rabies, which is potentially deadly if not treated quickly! If you think you have been bitten, seek medical attention immediately!** 🦇
