    Scientific name: Chiroptera.

    Hibernation period: 183 days.

    Phylum: Chordata.

    Length: Hammer-headed bat: 23 cm, Common vampire bat: 7.8 cm, Common pipistrelle: 4 cm.

    mammals

    Bats are more than one species worldwide and they can be grouped into minor and major according to their sizes.

    It is a subject to quiz that communities in Ghana especially Kumasi, Sunyani and other places with canopy trees are staged with these bats. Making noise here and there. Are they not health threatening?

    And why at all are they left there?

    These are some vital questions some concern citizens of Ghana are asking authorities.

    Moreover, it could happen it is not only to consume as food would be dangerous but as they urinate and pass out stools and other unseen respiration processes could be factored.

    Nsempafie Media is calling on authorities and stakeholders in-charges to pay note to this immediately.
