Default 40,000,000 bats in one cave!

Now thats impressive stuff!
Just watching in UKTV Documentarys

By all accounts they ALL leave the cave together.

10 planes in the sky at one time is a disaster, 40 million bats in close proximity... amazing !

In the distant and dank Transylvanian mountains was a vampire bat cave.

One night, Vein - the chief Vampire, flapped back in with his lips and teeth dripping fresh blood.

This got all the other Vamps excited and they pestered Vein to tell him where he had been for such a feast.

In the end he gave in and explained to them:


"OK boys - do you see those far away mountains?"


"Yes, yes" they squealed


"And to the left an old turreted castle?"


"Yes, yes" they squawked in glee


"And that old tree in the shadows in front"


"Yes, yes, yes" they screamed as one








"Well good," said Vein, "'cos I bloody didn't"

Nice one Cheif. I agree mighty impressive.

Even more impressive was the way the snakes and hawks wait to try and catch a couple, and the bats in turn form a defensive spiral...

Nature at its finest I have to say.
Well worth watching imo.
