Honduran white bat
This bat is one of the only two currently known species of bat that is white.
Unlike the misconception that all bats live in caves, this bat will use the leave of the large heliconia plant to form a tent.
The bats are rather small in size, measuring at just 1-2 inches in length and the weight is less than an ounce at .2 oz.
Near-threatened.
