How Vampire Bats Suck Blood for 30 Minutes Unnoticed
Vložit

- Thanks to a local anesthetic in their spit, vampire bats are able to drink blood from their prey without being detected. That way, they can feed undisturbed for up to a half hour at a time.

These little guys are so considerate! He gently shaves the hair, has anesthetic to make the experience pain free, and barely takes enough to make that large animal woozy or dehydrated. What a little gentleman. If you’re going to have a diet consisting of blood from another living being, you can be polite and keep your manners
Too bad they pose a huge risk of spreading dangerous diseases like rabies through their diets of blood
Also spread disease 😂
Lies again? Day Night AIA Money
Dracula...observe, and take notes.
The animal will soon become dehydrated tho. Not by blood loss, but hydrophobia
It’s so ironic that these guys get such a notorious reputation when they’re literally the most humane predators in nature.
It's because they're legit vampires! Lol!
AND the most adorable little creatures🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@colliric so i dont mind brad pitt either he is also a vampire

Well rabies isn't most humane tbh
Most predators: rip apart their victims tearing them limb from limb, a gruesome death.
Vampire bat: sippy sip, see you tomorrow, have a great evening! 👍
Horse: Understandable, have a great night.
P.S. here's your free rabies.
"Thanks for the blood, man, you're a lifesaver. Same time tomorrow night?"

Can I drink some of your blood every day. Would be so precious 🥺
I know right?! It's so frigging cute!
Did you know they share their food? As in, if a bat got a full stomach but their friend is hungry, they'll regurgitate some of the blood and kiss their friend to feed them.
So danm cute it's just sipping away and then he blows bubbles with the blood at 2:22-2:26. (Almost like he's playing with his food.)

Aw thanks, yeah most of us are actually quite friendly, it's the rabid one's that give us all a bad name.

The bat: Slurp Slurp I am derp
That definitely explain why in all media or stories the vampires can jump in the air and do stuff like that because these little guys can jump really high and the fact that they prefer climbing and walking from flying or how they can feed on people at night unnoticed or how they get fixated on a victim.
Honest whoever observed these little guys and created that whole mythology was a genius. (because before folk tales on vampires were different depending on the country and since these guys live in America it is understandable
It's the other way round, first came the mythology, then they discovered these bats in central and south America, making it part of the already existing mythology, that originally was about black cats, wolves and corpses.
@elvenkind6072 sorry I am late didn't receive notification
Kinda depends on the region. Mythology about vampires doesn't always involve jumping and climbing in Europe or Japan especially before the give and take with America from 15th century onward.
Myths about vampires exist all over the place since antiquity, not all of them had access to America and vampire bats.
My comment was about vampires in media like literature which became popular mainly by 19th century onward. By that time these guys were known and their features were added to the stories of modern literature too. Which explains why Dracula climbs down like a lizard in Bram Stoker's novel while modern day vampires picture them not only climbing but also jumping around. And of course modern day cartoons and anime etc joined the chat
vampire stories existed in Europe before they even crossed to sea to see these guys.
@@JurassicReptile that's what I literally said. Please read again the part where I say "myths about vampires exist all over the place since antiquity" or "before folk tales on vampires were different depending on region" etx

Definitely relate to that. Whenever the guy next to me pops open the last bag of chips in middle of class. "You plan on sharing that brother?"
I also hear vampire bat colonies are known to share blood meals with bats that weren't as lucky to get a meal, but there's also a system in place where if an individual bat tries to "cheat" by never reciprocating if another bat needs a meal, they no longer will obtain blood meals from other bats. I also recall reading that interestingly, vampire bats are relatively uninterested in human blood, and typically prefer the blood of ungulates such as horses, donkeys, etc.
The three different Species of vampire bats have different meal preferences. Two of them prefer ungulates and while one avoids human contact the other might recur to humans if livestock is scarce. The third species prefer to feed on birds
Sounds like they made a blood pact 🤭

The bats shouldn't have been portrayed as deadly but as annoying, but you'll easily survive.
what if 10 bats feed on a cow at the same time?
Blood loss is still minimal; the real issue is the diseases that they can carry & spread among livestock.
Truman they dont really group
feed much, but i think it would only harm a calf, and not so mutch a cow.
vampire bats can carry rabies
Yes - but there are some surprising results of studies on whether killing the vampire bats reduces the incidence of rabies in their vicinity:
www.livescience.com/41622-vampire-bats-rabies-transmission.html
Why did they have to try and make this scary? Sure, bats can transmit rabies, but only .5% of them are carriers; the odds of transmission are pretty darn low, even with vampire bats. They don't target people, preferring larger mammals like cattle, pigs and horses, make a tiny little cut the animal doesn't even feel, and they only drink a few tablespoons' worth. A few tablespoons of blood from something the size of a COW! Plus, they look after one another; if a member of the colony is weak and can't fly out to feed, the others will groom it, and each regurgitate a little bit of food for it, so it can have a full belly. They're kinda sweet, really.
Wow I didn't know that last part that's so caring ;p
Why did nature make vampire bats so god dam ugly that it's scarry compared to like a cute fox bat that looks like a doggo with wings?
Vampire bats rarely bite people
The only problem is the rabis they get
Dragoner Productions well echolocation is the reason, I’d say
The way they speak is so scary and the background music is giving me haunted vibes. But the video is so innocent.
2:22 Blood connoisseur: "Yes, this is quality stuff!"
I’m now thinking of a fancy vampire bat restaurant with a blood sommelier, and a line of bat waiters ready to regurgitate blood from the customer’s favorite mammal of choice.

people keep saying it's clickbait, how, in the video the guy says the bat was feeding on the horse for 30 minutes. Why would you want to watch a 30 minute video of bloodsucking?
people would watch 30 minutes of bloodsucking really makes me question people's intelligence on the internet
Merpug yeah but still, even if you had an interest with bats why a 30 minute video when you can get the same result in a 3 minute video
Merpug SHUT THE FUCK UP.
Merpug I mean you could look at the bottom corner of the video's thumbnail before you click, it shows how long the video is... Also the title said HOW it can manage to for 30 minutes, not actually doing it for 30 minutes.
Merpug wants a 30 minute bloodsucking video, just to skip through it and only watch 3 minutes.
They're playing all this horror movie music and it's literally just a rat sized pug with wings.
The common vampire bat is an airborne ground-hunting vampire that actively seek out their victims. But instead of using fangs, they have sharp incisors that make an incision and laps up the blood as it flows

They can carry rabies just as every other mammal would, they are not more "rabid" than the other mammals.

As a kid, I used to fear these things. And now, I still get scared of these things.
If it makes you feel better they have no interest in biting humans, numb the site, and because they are so tiny they only need two teaspoons of blood.
Also, if you are really unlucky and get bitten there is a really small chance that you can get rabies (less than 1%).
They also are extremely family oriented and are known to adopt orphaned baby bats whether or not they are related to them. Or feed sick members of their colony.
Ironically, they are morally one of the best predators around. They mildly inconvenience their hosts (usually livestock), and go home to feed orphans and the elderly.
It’s not their fault that they’re kinda creepy looking.
Some are creepy looking while some are like dogs with wings but they're harmless towards humans and can be really lovely

It sounds scary, yet I find this utterly fascinating. It's so unreal learning of a bat that actually drinks blood, but also finds a way to do so undetected biologically. Utterly astonishing. Though, I can admit it does have it's downfalls.
