Do we need any more reasons to avoid bats really?

  They are mobile germ incubation factories - 25% of mammals on the planet are bats just second after rodents.

    And they roam quite incredible distances. Keep in mind that there are 1000+ species of bats and that some of them are huge. https://www.google.com/search?q=flying+fox&tbm=isch https://www.google.com/search?q=flying+fox&tbm=isch

    25% by species. Bats only make up 1 billion out of 130 billion mammals, as near as I can tell from a quick Google.

      Yep.

      Does that 130 billion include or exclude humans and their livestock?
