Caves are without question the number one habitat we think of when it comes to bats, but it might surprise you to know that there could literally be THOUSANDS of bats living right under a place many of us use every single day...the road! This week Coyote has teamed up with wildlife expert Philip "Wildman" Rakoci to seek out the Mexican Free-Tail Bat under the dark desert highways of Arizona.
Most people are terrified of bats but Coyote and Wildman Phil are determined to show you why these stealthy little predators are nothing to fear and are actually pretty darn cute!
Special Thanks to Wildman Phil for all of his help on this episode and make sure to check out his work in animal conservation and education at www.wildmanphil.com

beautiful, thank you
I love bat
Dana Mcloughlin Me too!!
Coyote Peterson okay

FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE THINKS BATS ARE CUTE!! thank you coyote
my dad saw these bully's hurting a baby bat.
my dad went to them and pushed them all really hard away grabbed to baby weak bat and put the baby bat in his hat and ran. after a few months of my dad taking care of him at home he got to go to a animal shelter
it was different u can't buy them u just go bring hurt animals that can't survive outside by there selves. the baby bat got brought there we a few other little bats. now the little bat is ok
+Rachel Shaver what I mean by hurting is KICKING the bats
Rachel Shaver that's awesome tell your dad he is a legend
SparkytheWolf animations and more I find bats cute
SparkytheWolf animations and more I know
The bat is like: "Stop touching me! I am the night!" 4:54
LMFAO I can imagine the bat saying in one of those cartoon kid voices and I'm laughing so hard because it's so cute.
Nico
That is cool
Lmao that was great!
For some reason I read it in Kevin Conroy’s voice
'Aw, it's like a little mouse!'
'No, human! I am the night!'
"i am batman"
I think those Mexican free-tail bats are SOO CUTE!! I was afraid of bats, but now they don't seem all that bad! Amazing episode and I can't wait for more mammal episodes like this amazing one I just saw. Awesome work Coyote Peterson! Keep up the AMAZING work! :)
Thanks lindsay buck glad you enjoyed the start of our mammal episodes...next week - its Badger Time!
4:56 it's face like, "Awww man, I can't believe I got caught. I'm gonna get picked on for this one!"
3:40 it looks like the bat is screaming. 😂😂😂
no replys ha OH NO I REPLYED
Lol it does! 😆
it might be screaming in the ultrasound range.

Me : **sees bat**
Also me : theres probably gonna be someone commenting about corona virus
They are known for carrying lot of diseases... Bruh
Already did
Yea you
Most bats carry virus
bruh
Bats are cute. They are not aggressive and flying fuzz balls and keep the insect population under control. Also should check out fruit bats. They survive on fruit and their juices. None here in the US, but they are one of the species that keeps the rain forests alive. Also they are adorable and look like sky puppies.
We actually have the lesser long-nosed bat in Arizona, which is an important pollinator of our iconic cactus, the Saguaro.
In the 90s maybe someone’s pet got away or something because my mom and I saw a fruit bat in our neighbor’s tree. Southern California
Don’t they got rabies like you’re not supposed to touch because they have rabies?
Pretty sure I got one of these guys who has been hanging out by my front door about week now. I named him Picasso. At first I called management but for some reason they were afraid of him, kinda glad it worked out that way because it’s comforting to have him chilling there with me😅
He left and I feel so gutted😣 I miss him, safe travels Picasso!
I had an awesome experience with a little brown bat in a cabin in North Minnesota once; I noticed the bugger flying around inside the cabin around 12 or so. And at first, I thought it was a large moth until I heard some scrabbling sounds in the blinds. After about an hour of chasing him around with some heavy cloth gloves and a towel, I finally got him. Chittering all the way out the door. Adorable.
Was i the only one who was like
"WTF THEY'RE SO TINY" hahahahahahahahahaha😂😂😂
yes
yes
See
ok
I know Right? they are so tiny! I was like how could they fit in the tiny crevice? Then i was like OMG its so small!!
I live in a big urban city (Toronto), but one time I woke up in the middle of the night because I little bat was actually sitting on my chest! It took flight and flew around all over the inside of my house in big circles. My father and I opened all the windows in the house and after a few minutes it finally found one and flew outside. My mother was terrified, but my father and I loved it because it was so small and adorable. The next morning there was guano all over the floor in every room. The wacky thing is that this wasn't the only time. It happened again two years later!
megagene thanks so much for sharing your awesome bat encounter! They do frequently get inside peoples houses and I am thrilled to learn that you did all the right things in helping the little guy escape! Thank you for watching this episode!
megagene wow! It was actually chilling on your chest?!
Somebody give this man the medal ..he is unbelievable
i was waiting for batman to appear.

+Ziggy85 “Ziggmanster” Gaming I hope its his first time holding a bat like he said because he NEVER should have done that. Their wings are sensitive, he could have hurt it. Its very unconfortable for 'em. No wonder it was like fuck my life.
You're funny :3
Yeah.... They are adorable. Whenever I go up to Maine. I always look for bats in the raftors of the cabins outside.
ITS SO CUTE!!!! And the sounds they make ahhhhh😱😍😍
Adorable little critters. My father is an electrician and we were taking down some field lights. He was sawing the lights off and the poles into pieces, I was picking up the pieces and taking them to the scrap pile. Apparently, a few bats made their home in one and fell out right onto my shirt. they clung in desperation as I freaked out, then took off flying. Felt sorry for them, it was the middle of winter in Savannah GA, cold and the saw had to have REALLY disoriented them due to the vibrations and cutting of the pole, hell of a rude awakening and I fear they may have not made it from such a jarring experience.
I love bats! They're adorable little guys!
Side note: imagine a bat flipping someone off.
Just no....

タピアエドガー Mexican is a race, and a nationality.
Miss Nyong'o is not Mexican.
She's Nigerian, who grew up in Mexico.
There are small populations of Mexicans who are "Black," but they look like George Lopez(often lighter skinned, often with curly hair), and live near the Veracruz coast.
Sincerely, an actual Mexican.
タピアエドガー btw, if you're confused, the composition of the Mexican race is Native Americans, and Native Europeans _(as Europe is being flooded with foreigners, Ill specify)_ .
The normal Mexican is both American and European blood, but having only one or the other is also common.
The only exceptions are people who can immigrate, and not stand out.
This would include Christian Arabs, Jews, and other Hispanics(e.g. Colombians, Argentines, Salvadorans, etc.).
Funny 😁
im sure there are plenty of animal enthusiasts that i haven't seen since steve irwin. but this guy is a natural and can easily fill in the empty void of our beloved steve irwin. coyote just has that energy, charisma, respect, and dare-devil side that makes you want to learn and watch more.

I really like this guy - much nicer than a lot of animal experts they have on. You should do another episode with him.
When that bat returns to his family and friends, they are all like : Tell us where did the human touch you.
Phil: "And he's got fingers just like us."
Me: "I mean... well..."
"Watch out cause he might poop in your eye" 💩
😳
You can see the love and passion for bats in Phil's eyes and I love it
I absolutely adore bats. The foxface is my favorite. Especially the real large ones in Australia.
Love bats so much! And i'm very glad people are starting to realize that they are very cute and nice, and are now trying to help them with bat houses! thanks for the video coyote, hope you do more on bats and thanks Phil!
One very hot summer in Delaware, our family left open our sliding glass door to cool down because it was 80 degrees outside and it was 92 inside. (six-year-old kids are goobers.) i saw our back porch door was open and i went to close it but was too caught up in a new episode of a cartoon i liked. A bat flew in and then i did a stupid dance then screamed and sprinted back to my room and ran into the door, opened it, then went to play on my computer to forget about it. Two minuets later i hear my dad shout "Good god! another damn bat?!" and then i come out and run up to him and say "wadda' you gonna do?" and he said "go get the skimmer." (we have pool and that's what the skimmer's for.) so i went and got it and my dad showed me how to net him/her. i was screaming not in terror but, because i thought it was cuter than my puppy bulldog i got the day before as a gift because my very best friends moved away.later we let the bat back outside so he/she could go about his/her business.
Hoped you enjoyed my story!
Cool :D
+Enclave X01 ....I used a pool skimmer to get the bats out of my garage. xD
Ha!
IT was cool! XD
DELAWARE.
I have always liked bats. I don't know why but they are so cute too me. I go into bat caves and love every second of them flying around. It's a really surreal experience. They are no danger to us aside from a small bite, its all just phobia.
4:36 GET OFF ME HUMAN! I WILL GET YOU!
I love Coyote's excitement!
"I'm Batma- I mean Coyote Peterson"
4:36 "let me go let me go, I won't stand for this!"
We get a bunch of them during a certain time of year that can be seen flying overhead through the trees during the early afternoon. I think they're fruit bats, but they never come low or close enough to the ground to be able to see them up close. Still precious, I love the little creatures.
I L♡VE BATS SOOOOOO MUCH!!! #MiceWithWings! 🐁
Zninja 1162 Chiroptera not rodentina
Zoie Ninja They’re nowhere near related to rodents. They are actually very related to humans. Zoologists think they should be reclassified as primates instead of chiroptera
Welcome to 2020 quarantine
Coronsvirus came from bats
And even Hantavirus came from rats
in my house we have bats living in the walls in my parents room you can hear them scratching at the walls
Lucky
ikr
lucky? how tf is that lucky? thats kind of annoying and you cant even see the bats.
they eat bugs though, so if youre in mosquito land....
Shandi Ward lol its good
Bats are so cute! they remind me of puppies with wings. I also was reminded of one of my favorite childhood Disney movies, Ferngully.
Bats are so cute omg!!
makes me happy people like bats
If bat was cute...Hows Batman Is He too Cute??
1 luv bats
SweetAndSassySouthernAngel freak
Morbuis = the living vampire movie coming soon lol
At 4:40 the bat is just chilling there giving Coyote the "just wait for Batman to come here and then we'll see who interrupt whose sleep" look.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
I love little bats! I named one of them Cheepie!😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Its is not cheepie it's a Corona virus 🤣🤣
4:44 that bat was like: Dang it!🤣🤣
I've caught a bat before. It was hanging from my ceiling of my attic and I picked it up and let it free into the wild.
good for you
ok I don't like bat
+Juan Fernandez what about Batman?
Juan Fernandez there gentle
You did that wrong. You're supposed to let them leave on their own by finding all of the entrances and creating an exit that doesn't allow reentry.
You're never supposed to wake a bat up either.
Also, you're only supposed to do it at certain times of the year because you don't want to risk that the bat is leaving behind pups that will starve without their mother.
Google it. You'll find a lot of information and how to do it so if you ever find others, you'll know.
Absolutely Fascinating these creatures.
Who's the manliest bat?BATMAN!
Batman isn't a bat...
He's just a really young adult in a bat suit
This is so cool, Wildman Phil came to my elementary school when I was younger and showed us a bunch of reptiles and a tortoise without a leg named Stumpy.
Very interesting! I never knew bats had fingers like us, but know I know! Cool channel!
So do dolphins ;) part of being a mammal ;D
The english teacher in me says the correct spelling is,"now I know." I beg your pardon for the correction.
Mexican free-tailed bats are my second favorite bats only to Lyle's Flying Foxes because they're just so CUTE.
That was awesome! They are so cute! I'd love to handle a bat someday, be it big or small.
you should go to Austin cause thousand of bats come to the bridges each night
+Bart Van Wunsel Make sure to get trained in proper handling techniques and go out with a group that can properly educate you and you will have a GREAT time :) A lot of the people who survey bats to count their numbers are willing to allow us regular joes a chance to go with them to "help" count :)
*****
Whut?
i once saw an injured bat that can hardly fly get squashed by a girl because she stepped on it
She was lucky the bat was probably sick with rabies b/c bats don't go where people are in the day time.
I love this channel. It really helps me to appreciate animals.
5:08 the bat was like "hey wassup man"
Bats are adorable!
they're so cute when their mouths are open 😂😂
This is awesome, bats 🦇 are my favorite animal, I always loved them
Awe, they're so cute!
These bats are the cutest little creatures on earth!! I'm in love

Every time I see a bat I am surprised by how little they are. Like I know they are small but it surprises me every time
I LOVE Bats!!!!!!!!!!!!😄

That is the cutest animal I've ever seen tbh
He pointed to the wrong diget on the bat when he said was the pinkie.
Bats are like cute little winged puppys 🐕
I was jumping on the trampoline with my little brothers and this random bat flew above the net and into one of my brothers.
KeaLeonna INTO...
is your brother ok
yeah, he's fine, but probably traumatized (I'm kidding, he's alright)
I'd be more concerned for the bat.
How, exactly?
Bats are absolutely fascinating I loved them ever since I was a kid I wish I could have one as a pet
Story Time!
I once had a bat hang from my front screen door in the middle of the day. It wasn't foaming from the mouth or anything- it stayed there for a long time and even peed on the door. When my family and I came home we had to come in through the back door... It actually really scared me, i'm terrified of rabies but i knew that it had to bite me. it ended up flying off. We have two dogs that bark at a squirrel but they didn't bark at the bat. kind of strange..
Well Bats vary rarely get Rabies and even when they do, it normally kills them quickly, so they dont really get much of a chance at spreading it, tho you do still wanna be careful if you decide to handle a bat
Awwww! Mexican Free Tailed Bats are so adorable! We used to have a bunch under a bridge near us and we'd go there and photograph them! But they're gone now because of what happened with Hurricane Irma......
how bad does it hurt if a bat bites
Not so much
Well first of all bats carry so many diseases it's not even funny, soo... I wouldn't recommend trying to grab one on your own..
it gives you ebola but at least it doesn't hurt
-____SKRIIIEX____- Yet they do carry diseases there are only a few that can harm humans. They are actually less likely to get rabies unlike dogs and raccoons.

If It Was A Vampire Bat Coyote Would've Been A Vampire By Now
One time I was at Carl's back cabins and I was watching the bat flight and a bad hit my face with his wing O_O
LMAO X3
Bats are 😨 but cute 😍
Is_ThePiggylover888 that's awesome.
Is_ThePiggylover888 I had a bat land on my back. I was cool.
They like to brush past things sometimes with their wings.
These Bats Are Essential to the Sonoran Dessert. They play the same role as Bee's by spreading pollen from diffrent Cactus flowers. Amazing animals no doubt!
Aww it's so cute I wanna pet it XD 😍
Coyote you are soooo kool climbing up trees to catch animals and handling bats. I love this channel 😁
4:54
After learning about the corona virus the bat is like
*i am death. Destroyer of worlds. Fear me*
Bats are my all time favorite creature.
Catch one now and you will cause Covid-20 😂
@@natedog2304 i assume you got covid 21 😂
In Australia 3 people have died from a bat scratch or being bitten by one b/c bats can carry a form of the rabies virus, Australia's rabies virus strain has the same symptoms & the same ending - death, If anyone comes in contact with a bat/ flying fox get vaccinated for rabies before symptoms appear b/c after the symptoms appear there is nothing Doctors can do.
The most recent death was an 8 yr old little boy, two months after a bat scratched him on the arm in Queensland in 2013.
R.I.P Lincoln Flynn.
I think bats get a bad reputation, yes they aren't the greatest looking animals, but they are still mammals and rarely pose a threat.
GoldenJokered you are absolutely right...bats are great pest control eating all sorts of flying insects! Always more afraid of you than you should be of them... doing another episode on the western pipistrelle bat this summer...stay tuned if you like bats!
Coyote Peterson well bats are the main carer to animals with rabies, and the second or third biggest career to humans if i rember right!
But yea, people are over reaction when it comes to bats! Maybe they watched too much batman idk.
Oscar koksvik johansson i believe it all depends on the species of bat... and human bat interaction is pretty low... I think people are more afraid of them than they need to be :)
GoldenJokered no.... they do a lot of damage
I live in Ireland and I found a bat in my garden
A lot smaller than I thought!

I live close to carter caves and there are so many bats. I think they're so cute. And we had one outside my medical classroom, hanging from the door.
Who came here after the covid 19
I can just imagine while Coyote had the Bat by the wings that Bat was thinking "Don't touch me Coyote, I am the night!"
