Краткое описание

Реферат на английском языке про летучую мышь
Bats are mammals of the order Chiroptera (from the Greek cheir (χείρ) "hand" and pteron (πτερόν) "wing") whose forelimbs form webbed wings, making them the only mammals naturally capable of true and sustained flight. By contrast, other mammals said to fly, such as flying squirrels, gliding possums, and colugos, glide rather than fly, and can only glide for a short distance. Bats do not flap their entire forelimbs, as birds do, but instead flap their spread-out digits, which are very long and covered with a thin membrane or patagium.
