The vampire bat generally doesn't shelter in groups larger than eight, often living a solitary life. A vampire bat prefers feeding on livestock and herd animals.

Dire bats are animals with wolfish grins and immense wingspans. Survivors of a lost era, they are rarely seen beyond the dark forests and deep caves they haunt. Although dire bats are omnivores, they prefer the flavor of fresh meat over that of other prey.
These bats' fur varies in coloration, from deep auburn to almost black, and their skin is black. A dire bat's wingspan is 14 feet across, and it weighs 250 pounds.
This animal looks like a midnight black dire bat with red eyes and sharp long fangs.
