MMMM......Bob, bats are mammals; they breast feed their young and are covered in fur, not feathers......not sure if you wrote that or it was a cut and paste from another source, but bats are mammals....
Quite unique because they are the only mammals that can fly. Others like flying squirrels just glide (sorry Rocky!). That and their echolocation system make bats a most fascinating creature, it’s a shame they’ve been given such a sinister image.
Now that you mention it... sigh. At any rate, despite my misinformation, I have read that bats do not have or utilize ACE-2. I hope I haven't bungled that also. The whole thrust, as I understand it, is that the bat coronavirus merged with mammalian coronavirus in a wet market, that it was not 'engineered' in a lab. The mutation caused it to become hazardous to humans.
