How do bats catch bugs?

Many bats will use their tails to scoop insects up into their mouths!
(Also turn up the volume to hear their "feeding buzz" the bats make when they echolocate to find insects.)

They use their bodies as nets then? Wow!

[@BatBnB]

Some species use their tail membrane like a scoop! They are pretty impressive little animals.

This is amazing, and thank you for sharing! I never knew they cupped their tails like that to trap insects, but it's a brilliant way to hunt while in flight.
