Description

"Bats are among the most fascinating, beneficial, and misunderstood animals in America, and Texas is home to almost three-fourths of the 45 U.S. bat species. These night-flying mammals consume enormous quantities of destructive insects, while some are vital for pollinating plants. This book, by one of the world's leading bat biologists, tells the story of the bats of Texas, dispelling many of the harmful myths and revealing the roles bats play in keeping our environment healthy. It includes profiles and identification guides for all 32 Texas species, complete with striking color photos that show bats as few people ever see them."--BOOK JACKET.
