"Humans think of bats as elusive, mysterious, almost supernatural
creatures, silently gliding through the interface between light and darkness. To
experience the life of one of these night flyers, take a trip to the Cockpit
Country of Jamaica, a crater-filled lunar landscape covered with lush jungle.
The entrance to a cave in the hillside is shrouded day and night by a swirling
fog, created when the warm air of the outside world meets the cold breath of the
dark chambers beneath, with its scent of deep-reaching tree roots, moist earth,
and dripping limestone walls. At dusk the bat wakes and flies on delicate,
leathery wings through the stony labyrinth seeking the balmy air outside. It
drinks from a stream, feasts on the wild jungle figs that grow on the hillside,
and enjoys the ripe bananas and other soft fruit that grow in the cultivated
clearings near the village. Fully satisfied, it makes its way back to its roost
where it snuggles with its warm companions, grooms itself meticulously, and
falls asleep again, lulled by the clean, sweet scent of musky fur." - Note from
