Bats of the ordinary size, are very numerous in Jarnaica; tfiey im; fonnaiH" 
mills and old bouses, especially such as are little occupied ; they do great mis- 
chief in gardens, wherp thu'y eat the green peas, opening the pod over each pea, 
and removing it veiy dexterously. Bishop Heber says, " the vampire bat of In- 
dia is a very harmless creature, of habits entirely different from the formidable 
idea entertained of it in England. It only eats fruit and vegetables, and indeed 
its teeth are not indicative of carnivorous habits; and from blood it turns away 
when offered to it. During the day-time, it is, of course, inert; but at night it 
ft lively, affectionate, and playfiil, knOws its keeper, but has no objection to tiffed 
approach and touch of others." Mr. Waterton, however, when speaking in tlM 
"wanderings" of the vampire of South America says, "there are two speciesW 
Deinerara, both of which suck living animals ; one is rather larger than the Com- 
mon bat, the other measures above two feet from wing to wing extended. ^'iSa 
gently does this nocturnal surgeon draw the blo6d, that instead of bcing'rbxis'^,^ 
tW patient is lulled into a stiTl profound sl6cp.** The larger vampire suldks
