    Are vampire bats hazardous? - Imran Razik

    Follow the nighttime routine of a vampire bat as it hunts for prey, and find out how these unique creatures work together to survive.--Vampire bats are the only mammals to subsist on blood alone. Their ancient ancestors might have eaten parasites and insects off larger animals until vampire bats began feeding directly from those animals themselves. So, how do these nocturnal creatures find their sustenance? And what animals do they most commonly target? Imran Razik follows the nighttime routine of a vampire bat as she hunts.Lesson by Imran Razik, directed by Sharon Colman.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/how-vampire-bats-drink-your-blood-without-you-noticing-imran-razikDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/how-vampire-bats-drink-your-blood-without-you-noticing-imran-razik/digdeeperAnimator's website: https://www.sharoncolman.comMusic: https://soundgoods.tv----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
