Vampire Bat
When you look at this vampire bat, you see connection. There are 3 different species of vampire bats: Desmodus Rotundus, Diphylla Ecaudata Centralis, and Diaemus Youngi. The Desmodus Rotundus is known as the common vampire bat and is abundant throughout Eastern Mexico from the southern limits of the Republic North route to approximately 175 miles from the United States boundary. The second species, the Diphulla Ecaudate, is the known as the hairy leg vampire bat and is rare in North America. The last species of vampire bat is called Diaemus Youngi, also known as the white winged bat for its distinct wing color.
Vampire bats are connected within their community and species. They have developed sophisticated vocal systems for communication of many different forms: social calls, courtship, and contact calls. Their calls rely on a signaler's characteristics, such as species identity, sex, individual identity, group membership, social status and body condition. Because many species of bats can rely little on vision due to their nocturnal lifestyles, it is assumed that sound and olfaction are particularly important signaling modes.
