The Honduran white bats are worth introducing. Supreet Sahoo, a professional bird photographer spotted these bats in the Costa Rica rainforest and caught them on his camera.
These white bats also come by the name Caribbean white tent-making bat and Cotton ball-bats. They are very small. Believe me, the images you see are the maximum size these bats ever reach. The size of males and females doesn’t vary much.

Honduran white bats can be found in Costa Rica, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. They are very difficult to spot and are now listed as near threatened on the IUCN list.
Supreet has that luck, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He found these cuties while walking through a rainforest in Costa Rica during one of his photo walks.
