Day 11 - Bats
Oct. 14th, 2007 05:27 pmI weighed myself and found that if I was a bat, I would have to consume about 400 bananas a day. There were also scales that indicated how many buckets of insects and flower nectar I would have to eat. Mostly the conclusion was too much. I don't think I could become a bat.
The Bat Jungle also contained bronze models of giant bat heads and lots of random information about bats, such as that there would be no tequila without bats, since they pollinate the agave plant. Balsa wood and figs are also often pollinated by bats.
I listened to the sounds of the bats, translated by a machine into sounds I could hear. Then after that, I entered a room with cute fruit bats in it, curled up together initially, but all beginning to squirm if just one bat started to move.
