While this is really interesting, it didn't explain why this leads to bats being fine. Why wouldn't the virus just immediately proliferate and consume the bat if there's no immune response? It's not like they're intelligent and know they need to keep the host alive. They just multiply.
@@mobilemarshall In the video, they talk say that the bacteria try to make the organism destroy itself. However, bats can stop this by "smarter" immune systems. Therefore, stopping the bacteria from killing them.

And I believe another threat to bats is noise pollution. Which can cause bats to navigate poorly and end up crashing into stuff more often. And noise pollution can even disturb their sleep even during winter. This can cause them to wake up during the day, and they may not be able to eat and then they can crash into stuff and get injured. Noise pollution is also a problem for elephants, wildcats and even owls and other wildlife.
