Do you know how bats differ from vampires?
Of the more than 1,400 species of bats recorded in the world, only three feed on the blood of animals: the common one, the one with hairy legs and the one with white wings. According to the Humboldt Institute, there are multiple records of these vampires in Colombia and, apparently, they have a protein that could help treat vascular diseases.
Hi @MountainMom
Thanks @Diamond_Lim
When Dracula was published, it was an unparalleled success. People flocked to buy the book. The true story has been forgotten. The story of the monster king "Vlad". It was replaced by the story "Dracula". Which became in the imagination of people that mythical creature that sticks its fangs into the necks of its victims to suck their blood.
Thanks for the tag @Diamond_Lim
