What they eat:
Insects including flies, moths, crickets, cicadas, and ants and spiders. They catch some prey in flight but can also land and crawl quickly after non-flying prey.
Conservation threats:
Vulnerable to loss of roost sites in tree hollows and loss of feeding grounds by forestry activities, clearing for agriculture and housing.
Other information:
Hoary bats get their name from their fur which has long, white-tipped hairs that give it a frosted, 'hoary' look. These bats were not recognised as a separate species until the 1960s.
