Bat

Bats are a group of wild, flying mammals of generally small size that feed on other small mammals, insects, reptiles, or fruit. Although the majority of bats are small, a few larger varieties exist. Bats are almost all nocturnal.

All bats are adept at perceiving their surroundings in the dark though the precise mechanics differ from species, with most bats using a form of blindsight, shadowhunter bats using darkvision, and fire bats projecting light around them.
