From 6 years old Come and discover the wonderful life of bats ! Learn about their environment, their physical features, what they eat and much more! The “How they live” collection is a must-have for children and other members of the family who are eager to learn about nature and animals while having fun. EXTRACT Bats are the only mammals capable of sustained flight. Their front legs are modified into skin flaps which they use to fly – as well as birds can with their wings. The bats that live in Europe feed on insects, which they catch in flight. Due to their nocturnal activity, they help to regulate the number of night insects, which might otherwise multiply beyond control. Bats find their way using echo-location. They emit high-pitched calls that the human ear cannot detect, and the echo helps them to locate their insect prey. They also have good eyesight. ABOUT THE COLLECTION The collection "How they live..." is about wild creatures and their relation to our lives and the environment. In the "How they live..." series : • How they live... amphibians • How they live... birds • How they live... owls • How they live... reptiles • How they live... rodents ABOUT THE AUTHORS Ivan Esenko presents the world of nature and invites the reader to learn more about the world that we are part of. His camera is his most faithful companion and its lens particularly likes to ‘capture’ those animals that live in close quarters to man. We take them so much for granted that we no longer seem to care for them. Ivan is their voice, he has become their ‘personal’ photographer. David Withrington from Britain has spent most of his professional life working for the official agency, Natural England, where he was initially Author/Editor and latterly Senior Freshwater Adviser. He has a particular interest in birds and butterflies. He has many contacts across Europe through his voluntary work for youth and environmental conservation, including friends in Slovenia, a country which he has visited 34 times. ABOUT THE PUBLISHER Okaši is a Slovenian publisher with a vibrant programme. At every turn, nature reveals its new face and discloses a myriad of secrets. This is why we have devoted a special place to it in our publishing house. We are the creators of books that delight curious children and their parents in their discoveries of nature: in the home garden and the nearby park, but also further afield, in the fields and forests. At Okaši we keep pace with the times which is why have embarked upon several electronic editions of our books. We have added sound to these publications and hence a new dimension to the contents already there.

Amazing, fascinating, bizarre are words that barely start to describe the bats of the world. Some are big, some tiny, many eat insects and fruit, yet there are others with more unusual tastes in food - such as the fisherman bat which uses its claws to catch fish or the unjustly demonized bloodeating vampire bats. Bats will not fly into your hair, and they are not blind, but their role in pollination is crucial to the environment in which they live. Bats are full of surprises. With such a large array of species, bat expert Phil Richardson guides you through the nocturnal world of bats: where they live, how they feed, and how they survive in almost every habitat on the planet. He uses his experiences of bat watching around the world to describe their complex life cycles, and explains how you can watch and study bats and help conserve these often threatened mammals. Wherever you live, there are likely to be bats near you, so discover more about your nocturnal neighbours with the help of this highly readable and fully illustrated book.
