Description: “...He saw for a moment the outline of a head black against the starlight, with sharply-pointed upstanding ears and a crest between them. It seemed to him to be as big as a mastiff’s...the next moment his ankle was gripped and held by a row of keen teeth...”(“In the Avu Observatory” by H. G. Wells)

NOTES: The giant bat has all the normal instincts of a common bat.

HISTORY: Giant bat-like creatures have become a staple of fantasy fiction though their origins may or not be considered natural.
