What type of mammal is a bat?
All bats are mammals. There are more than 1,000 known species of bat, too many to list here.
Is the bat from the bird family or dog or cat family?
Bats are in their own family of mammals. As mammals they are more closely related to cats and dogs than they are to birds.
List of flying mammals?
The only mammals that can fly are the bats, but there are many more than 20 kinds of bats.
Is an ostrich more intelligent than a goat?
No. Generally speaking mammals are more intelligent than non-mammals
Why do mammals lose more heat energy than reptiles?
Mammals have higher metabolic rates than reptiles, which means they generate more heat internally. This excess heat needs to be released to maintain a stable internal temperature, so mammals lose more heat energy through mechanisms like sweating, panting, and shivering. Reptiles have lower metabolic rates and can rely on external sources of heat, like the sun, to regulate their body temperature.
Do most mammals fly?
No. Bats are flying mammals. Flying squirrels glide rather than fly. I know of no others.
Are dinosaurs the oldest mammals?
No. Dinosaurs were not mammals. They were more closely related to birds and modern reptiles than they were to mammals.
Why are male birds more likely to help care for their babies than male mammals do?
well birds get eating more than mammals so they help care more.
What two mammals are very different to all other mammals?
A platypus gives milk but lays eggs. Bats are capable of flight (rather than gliding).
Do mammals have more than one stomach?
yes
I read that there is a mammal that can fly and not glide other than bats. What is it?
The only mammals that can truly 'fly' naturally are bats, all other 'flying' mammals are actually gliders. That just leaves humans, who can fly by operating an aircraft.
Are bat born alive or not?
Bats are mammals, and so are born live rather than hatching from eggs.
