Is this Thing Possessed…? (Answer: YES!!!!)





This demonic-looking creature is the bigear micronycteris (Micronycteris microtis). And, I swear, it looks possessed. Very, very possessed. I’m so freaked out by this creature that when I first saw it, I thought “AAAH! It’s a demon infecting my computer!” (And then I thought, “Aww, it’s kind of cute.” But you didn’t hear that from me.)

This bat’s species name, microtis, actually means “small ear,” which I think is a slight mistake on the describer’s part. Hear that, Miller? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, TSK!

I love bats. They are so kawaii et dulcé. But not this one. (Yes, this one!)

PS: 30th post! :)
