They are not THAT closely related; bats are mammals, not birds. Both mammals and birds are vertebrate animals.
no bears are not birds so their not related to birds
Bats and birds are not closely related. Bats belong to the order Chiroptera, while birds belong to the class Aves. They are both capable of flight, but their wings are structurally different - bat wings are made of skin stretched over elongated finger bones, while bird wings are made of feathers.
Bats are in their own family of mammals. As mammals they are more closely related to cats and dogs than they are to birds.
A bat bears it's young alive, does not have feathers and does not have the high metabolic rate of a bird.
Flies, Pigs, bats, humans, dogs,iguanas etc
There is none beyond that all animals are related and that bats and birds are both land-dwelling vertebrates. Birds, bats, and insects developed flight independently of one another.
Bats are closely related to other mammals, such as primates, rodents, and carnivores. They belong to the order Chiroptera, which is divided into two suborders: the Megachiroptera (large fruit bats) and the Microchiroptera (small insect-eating bats).
Bats, birds, spiders. Some flies ,wasps,dragon flies, lizards, cats, dogs, rodents, bears,owls
Hawks, snakes, raccons, and owls eat bats
Bats do, birds do not
Examples of similar features that evolved through convergent evolution include wings in birds and bats, camera-like eyes in vertebrates and cephalopods, and thorns in cacti and rose bushes. These traits evolved independently in different lineages in response to similar selective pressures, resulting in functional similarities despite genetic differences.
