Vampire bats have a high metabolism, so if they don't feed every other day, they will die. One other cool thing they will do is adopt the orphans in their colony to keep the young alive. I think that's a pretty neat thing you've forgotten to mention!
Now I have a terrible mental image of children dressed like vampires for Halloween vomiting blood onto the floor while other vampire-clad children hungrily lap it up.
Well, we've bred them for slaughter for quite some time now. You show them a cooking tray, they practically jump out of their feathers, climb on board, assume a position and sensually say _"Cook me like one of your french poulettes~"._
Michael: says a species of vampire bat bites and sucks the blood from bird genitals Michael: "...for some reason the birds tend to not like this very much."
tom435111 are you joking cause, a hole punched through your face with a small keychain then inserted into it is a little different from hoodie strings.
random connection I remembered so vampire bats need to pee alot to fly right. So a cool thing about another liquid food eating creature, bees, will squirt out water randomly while flying.
Wait, if blood contains no fat, even drinking half their body weight in blood won't be sufficient to provide them with fat? I'm also curious how blood eating animals evolved to be.
I like this because one day they will answer you and this will become the new meme, so everyone in the comments will ask gently about interesting topics.
Priscilla Ferrari trust me, people will just make meme about the subjects of the videos giving them cerebral aneurisms, nothing creative can become a meme
Actually, we should rename Uranus to Caelum, which is the name of the roman god. Urano is greek and is the only greek god among planets. Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, etc. are all roman.
Today I learned Vampire bats are socialist. I'm sure there's some joke here about how the right is less caring than literal bloodsuckers, but I'm no comedian.
Or you could look for the actual reasons people think differently from you, instead of inherently arriving at the conclusion that they must not care about other people. Because, y'know, if someone has different views than you, its probably just because they're assholes right?
Cringe, fun fact our ancestors were bloodsucking vampires. Meaning that until this day we still crave blood without realizing it. that's why you cover fries with ketchup, that's why you put tomato sauce on spaghetti. It's literally your insticts telling you need animal blood
P̷s̷ʏ̷ᴄ̷ʜ̷ᴏ̷ᴛ̷ɪ̷ᴄ̷ R̷ᴀ̷ɪ̷ɴ̷ʙ̷ᴏ̷ᴡ̷ᴢ̷ I did, because somehow a several hundreds year old guy having sex with and stalking an 18 yo girl *I think? haven't watched the movies..* is somehow cute and totally not creepy.
P̷s̷ʏ̷ᴄ̷ʜ̷ᴏ̷ᴛ̷ɪ̷ᴄ̷ R̷ᴀ̷ɪ̷ɴ̷ʙ̷ᴏ̷ᴡ̷ᴢ̷ Yup, 100% my position too. If two people are content or happy with what they are doing, then the rest of the world can just fuck off. Nice to find another sane person in this world! :)
So, basically vampire bats pretend to ravish their prey and make meals of the ones who fall for it? Now *that* would be a fascinating twist ending to Twilight. Maybe work in the other technique and have a mysterious lost baby suck from some sucker who tries to cuddle it. Bonus if she actually tries to give it suck, and gets sucked in a way she absolutely did not expect.
Am I the only one here who thinks that vampire bats are kinda cute??? (I mean yes they also look kinda scary with the fangs and stuff but at the same time they look kinda cute)
The fact that vampire bats will share blood (via regurgitation) with others who don't have enough is simultaneously disgusting and heartwarming.
Personally, I love how bats flying around look like they're constantly tripping over themselves
SO CUTE!!!
Schadenfreude
I know right? #FailMontages LOL
"For some reason, the birds tend not to like this very much." I died. xDDDDDDDDDD
They just don’t like their booty eating like groceries

oh
They'd probably do it for their children and elderly relatives, too.
what a mad scientist u are
:^)
Try puking it down their throats instead.
I'm sorry, but that's wrong, they'd vomit chocolate and sweets to share with those less fortunate. Yeh, OK, still not a nice image.
so what i learned is that chickens are even dumber than i thought.
Yes.
Vlad Rudeychuk lol
Vlad Rudeychuk google how to hypnotise a chicken. It's easier than you might expect.

A vampire bat that bites the cloaca of birds and drinks blood!?! 2:37
That really sucks for the bird.
So you all complain about olivia's piercings but say nothing about michaels uneven hoodie strings.
tom435111 are you joking cause, a hole punched through your face with a small keychain then inserted into it is a little different from hoodie strings.
+carlton banks
no it's not that shit is fucking annoying.
I don't really care about her piercings but her striped shirt that gives off wierd moving patterns on camera is really unnerving.
Thanks, now I can't unseen the hoodie strings. 😓
Piercings ? Piercings are whatever. Did you hear her voice ? and crazy hand movements ?
random connection I remembered

Hey SciShow can you do a video on what happens to our blood when we give blood and how our body reacts to the sudden loss of blood. Thanks so much
0:12 How could no one not love that smile?
How nice of bats to share with one another... Though in a gross way though, basically puking and then exchanging puke. Blood/puke is bat currency xD
0:59 i nearly fell over laughing at the picture! 😐🙂😀😄🤣
I love learning about altruistic animals. Thanks for the video

Blood actually does have some fat in it, just not very much.
@@Sara3346 blood is actually nutritious for humans.
@@ahabrawgaming1289 nutritious, yes. Caloric, no.
Their gut biome is different.
So basically vampire bats are just overall better than humans in terms of supporting their fellow kind for the better.

Lol, little guy's totally smiling for the camera.
Oh my god that White Winged Vampire Bat was so cute
Can you do one on cerebral aneurysms? I had one rupture at 19 and would love to learn more!

I really hate making up names for this kind of stuff let me dream :(
So not only this horrifying creature will creep on me to suck my blood at night, it will pee on me first ?!
Why life is so unfair ?!
Well, it'll pee on you after it starts sucking your blood, not before. But... yeah, i see your point.
Luniii737 What kind of satanic creature is this ? Could there be another one, whose sucking the pee while other feeds ?!
Happy Halloween everyone!

who loves orange soda?
I'm kinda partial to it. ^_^
@@Soraviel Tiba loves orange soda!!!
So hairy-legged bats literally tear birds a new one.
they just widen.... the old one D:
Is that better or worse?
Yeah, thats disgusting. I'd stick with biting things on the neck if i was a vampire bat.
2:01 Did you say that vampire bats can see in infrared?! Please do a video on this! Infrared detection is very rare in living things!
I knew that chickens are really dumb, but let's just say that my knowledge has been expanded further.
Lucille is thirsty, she's a VAMPIRE BAT!
I think a vampire bat would make a cool and really creepy pet :)
Yaay bats, i love them! Anyone else here? 🙌 (we need a bat emoji)
🦇🦇
I think they are awesome
🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇
🦇
heh so they help eachother...they are already better then 90 percent of the human species xD
Lesson from this episode: chickens are really dumb
They actually aren't, they are just bird brained.
Vampire bats look like those tiny dogs that are so ugly, they're kinda cute.
To be fair, a “big meal” for a vampire bat, is relative.
You forgot to mention they are adorable, and Draculin XD scientists are such nerds, I love it

your videos consistently get crazy low dislike numbers. that's pretty rare on youtube. shows how great your channel is.

This was such a clear, concise, to the point presentation with no excess nonsense
Edit: I sound like a fucken school teacher
and they are also, frigging adorable 😍
True
Bats are adorable.
what an amazing creature, Vampire Bats have some amazing creature power and instincts inside of their small bodies, creatures of the night
I watched this video with my phone upside down to make Michael more bat like
Ah nature, will your wonders ever cease? No? ...not even if I say please?
Oh well. Remember folks: Vomit Blood Generously. It's in you to give!

If a vampire bat gets a cut inside their mouth, will they bleed to death?
At first I disapproved of this comment, but then it turned out to be an actually very good question... hmmm...

Today I learned Vampire bats are socialist. I'm sure there's some joke here about how the right is less caring than literal bloodsuckers, but I'm no comedian.
Meh, I don't know if I'd say they're socialist, but reciprocal altruism is the basis for all empathy, so they're at least empathetic.
I guess there's a reason communists are called "reds".
Or you could look for the actual reasons people think differently from you, instead of inherently arriving at the conclusion that they must not care about other people. Because, y'know, if someone has different views than you, its probably just because they're assholes right?

I wonder if vampires would be seen more positively if they were as cute as vampire bats.
It is one of my pet peeves to hear someone say 'feed' instead of 'eat'.
Remember, its not pedophilia if both of them LOOK young.. ~Twilight

How does it get to the blood? Does it work like an insect proboscis or do they rip out an opening and funnel it with their tongue?
Why after watching too much TV, playing videogame or beeing to long by the cell phone our vision gets tired and it becomes harder to sleep?
Happy Halloween all 🎃
I'm gonna change my last name to Draculin. :P
would have definitely liked some info about the chances of them carrying rabies as compared to normal bats
Did hank start to lactate yet?
1:00 the stock clip art got me XD I even found where its from

lmao I got a tampon ad
I couldn't watch this without moving and rub my veins 😱😱
Hate needles and a blood stuff 😂 I'm not weird, well not that weird 😂
This was a better love story than Twilight.
Which came first Dracula or the discovery of the vampire bat?
They are such cute looking little creatures
Bats are cute & endangered and if one tried to suck my blood I honestly wouldn't try to stop it.
COOL
AWESOME
more Awesome!!!!
What happens when a vampire bat bites its tongue though.
This video is almost four years old and has under 200,000 views as of April 5, 2020. Science is so sadly under-appreciated.
I love them .
So the main takeaway here is that chickens are very, very dumb.
Dang, that one bat tosses chicken salad.
kind of disappointed you didn't dress or do anything for Halloween but love bats so
Desmoteplase to Draculin .... Coool
That hairy bat was so cute
I remember there being mentioned something about scientists finding butthair too much of a taboo to research.
...
I'm confused.
Vampires in books and movies: murderous psychopaths and/or sex gods
Vampires in real life: so basically im baby
I smell a the walking dead reference ^^
Why cant we remember our dreams very well? In fact, why can i remember i forgot something but not what i forgot.
Memory vijayos! pleeeeeease
mixamun good question
Wow I never even knew there are more than 1 species of vampire bat.
So, basically vampire bats pretend to ravish their prey and make meals of the ones who fall for it?
Now *that* would be a fascinating twist ending to Twilight. Maybe work in the other technique and have a mysterious lost baby suck from some sucker who tries to cuddle it. Bonus if she actually tries to give it suck, and gets sucked in a way she absolutely did not expect.
Tight Knit Vampire Clan
Admit it... we all wanted to be vampires
Cool stuff! I might try a drink myself.
we should all learn from vampire bats some good manners
Anyone else remeber Billy and Mandy? "Vampires dont suck! We scrape and lick"
bats are so cool
Cool video!
There are some really cute kinds of bats. This is not one of them.
Lucille is a vampire bat
glad my fursona is a vampire bat
Cool, learn something new everyday!
Fruit bats are way cuter.
But do they regurgitate for each other?
Fruit bat is best bat.
I still think Honduran whites are the cutest bats.
Good day to you.
Make the bald guys where glasses till hank gets back.
woooooooo good video
