		<description>Bats are pretty cool. I like to watch them around dawn and dusk. When I was a kid, I had a little rubber bat named Barky Bat that I loved so much. The day I lost it I was devastated. If these little creatures go extinct, it will have to go through the trauma of an entire species being lost. That&#039;s like barky bat all over again, times 20! For the sake of emotional state, please save these bats.</description>

		<description>Bats are very important to keeping the insect population at a stable level. I was in Brazil once, and where I was staying, I saw bats near my room. That whole trip, I never got bit by mosquitos, no bugs were in my room, and the bats were very pretty when you shone a light on them and watched them eat.</description>

		<description>Bats do about several thousand % more to help the environment than the average human ever will.  Like you, Rutherfoo.

What makes a bat a monster Rutherfoo?  Are you scared of them?  Scared of myths about vampires and bats will suck your blood?  Awwww... so cute.  I&#039;d approximate your age about 8.  Mentally of course.

How about you consider the fact that bats are the only flying mammal in the world.  That&#039;s quite cool.  But yes, Rutherfoo, bats help with controlling insect populations and fruit pollination.  Many things control insect populations of course, but we can&#039;t just go killing off each one saying, oh, there&#039;s others that do it... otherwise before you know it there isn&#039;t.  That&#039;s about the time you&#039;d notice insects swarming over every inch of the planet eventually depleting all the resources we depend on with their population bloom.  And just to further it, bat guano plays a very critical role in some cavern areas... supporting many invertebrates.  Also, bat guano can be a source of paleoclimatic records... not to mention we harvest it for a variety of reasons.  Bat guano can make superphosphate, which plays some pivotal roles in our agriculture.

To correct your statement, Rutherfoo, if you don&#039;t understand that we depend on so many factors for human survival, then you&#039;re well on your way to extinction yourself.
Of course not just yourself, people like you like to drag the whole human population to extinction because your an ignorant child who&#039;s simply never grown up enough to care about anything that doesn&#039;t immediately pertain to yourself.</description>

		<description>Sorry, Gav but if you actually buy into that whole &quot;Bats do great things for our environment&quot; Then you&#039;re well on your way to extinction yourself.</description>

		<description>&gt;&gt;Humans have never done any place in the world any good. I’m glad these little monsters are finally going to be rid of for all of eternity.

Fixed.</description>

		<description>Actually, bats have been listed as an animal that is very important for people. Bats help to pollinate plants that we eat, they eat insects that spread human disease and they leave droppings that are extremely good soil fertilizer for crops and wild plants.</description>
