Leave out the mayonnaise and put in lots of mustard and enjoy the salad. The other dangers on your picnic will be biting insects and your beloved snakes, but you won't need to worry about bats 'cause they stash themselves away during picnic-time

In Utah you have a wonderful Spotted Bat found in the arid places of southern British Columbia, too. Well, and all places in between and to the south of you. This one is about 12 cm long and with a wingspan of more than 30 cm. It's spotted, obviously, and lives entirely on flying insects. No danger to you, in other words. The problem with this one is that its habitat is endangered by encroaching humans -- it prefers to be away from us and we keep on moving closer to it.
