Would be better, though, if they just used a poison that would kill the mosquitoes outright, then the bats would look elsewhere for food.

Even better to encourage more bats to the area so they'd eat all the mosquitoes!   Sounds to me like the natural balance in the area has gone wrong.


Yup. On both counts.

Poor bats. They are fast becoming endangered due to us. That's the problem with being an evolutionary specialist as you fit too neatly into your ecological niche. I mean, look at Homo Sapiens, the best generalist around who can manipulate any environment to suit themselves.

ZephyrZodiac:
Along with rats and cockroaches!  Does that also make us vermin?

laeshanin:
Heh  ;D You said it, and I think it's a valid if somewhat harsh point.

bluecatvon:
yes we are vermins haha. i've always favored animals to humans

ZephyrZodiac:
Well, we're the only species I know of which is capable of wiping out whole groups of its own kind!
