The white-winged vampire bat is a small bat that feeds on blood. It lives from Mexico to northern Argentina, and also on the islands of Trinidad and Margarita Island. Its pale wing edges make it easy to tell apart from some of its relatives.1

Ubumara bwayo bukora iki?

Its saliva contains plasminogen activators, which quickly dissolve the clots that form in the host's blood while it feeds. It also contains platelet aggregation inhibitors and other anticoagulants, which stop blood from clotting. These compounds work especially well on birds.1

It can transmit rabies, but this appears to be relatively uncommon. The only reports of rabies transmission from this species come from Trinidad.1

When disturbed, it produces a foul-smelling odour from cup-shaped scent glands in its mouth, which may help deter predators.1

Ibintu by'ukuri

1

In captivity, each bat drinks about 16 ml of defibrinated cow or chicken blood per day, and they should be kept in social colonies with dominance hierarchies.1

2

It is the only bat species in the world with 22 teeth, although older individuals sometimes lose the last upper molars.1

3

Its brain is large for its body size, which may be because its hunting needs careful planning and stealth.1

4

It is not as good as the common vampire bat at walking on all fours, but it is quite good at climbing branches.1

5

It roosts with many other bat species, including the common vampire bat.1
