on halloween all kinds of creepy things chase us witches that fly skeletons that walk ghosts and more Luckily none of those things is for teal but bat are. These dark squeaky animals look like mice with wings and are the only mammal that can fly (flying squirrels just jump.) But bat ate our friends because they are flying bug traps. a bat can eat 1/3 of its body weight in bugs in just a few more . When you think about how little bug weight that's a lot of insects . Bats find their food by making a very loud high pitched noise that bounces off the bug and that tells them where to catch it. Bats can be any size from smaller than our hand to nearly 2 feels long let's hope that one doesn't chase you on halloween. Hold you arms out the side like bat wings flap them up down 4 full times count to 4 as you flap your wing. if you and 9 friends dress up as bat for halloween you many bat are you altogether 10 bats how many wings do you all have 20 wings. If a bat flies 5 feet to catch a bug then 3 feet from there to catch the next then 9 feet then 6 feet what's the closest the bat can end up from is starting point.I foot from the stat if it flew froward 5 back 3 (to just 2 feet ahead ) back 9 to 7 behind and them forward 6. If 2,000 bugs together weigh just 1 ounce how many bugs does a bat catch in 1 pound Hint what if there were just 2 bugs in each ounce and reminder if needed a pound has 16 ounces 32,00 bugs yuck if or halloween your street block has 36 bats total and there are 3 times as dress up bats how many of those 36 bats are real 27 real bats however many dress up bats there are the real ones add 3 more sets that size making 4 set total so there ere 9 dress up bats giving us 27 for the rest . from called bedtime math.
