Walk-around of the Safari Ltd. Incredible Creatures Townsend’s big-eared bat, Corynorhinus (Plecotus) townsendii Cooper, 1837, originally released in 2013. Really, I could not think of a better bat replica! Snout-vent length is approx. 90 mm plus 45 mm tail, wingspan measures approx. 275 mm in direct line but would stretch out to approx.

For most people Halloween is one day a year, for me and my family it represents a month-long celebration of all things spooky. So, for October I’ve decided to share some of that spookiness here with reviews of some classic creepy creatures. The sort of creatures that make most peoples skin crawl or are associated with bad omens and superstitions.

Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario. Those are the names of the Great Lakes of North America that boarder the central/east United States and Canada. In total area they represent the largest freshwater lakes on Earth, holding roughly 20% of the world’s surface freshwater and 9/10ths of the water supply for the United States.

After rodents, bats, which make up about 20% of all mammal species, form the second largest mammalian order, Chiroptera. Consequently, many bat figures (although not quite as many as the size of the group would suggest) have been made over the years, with one of the more recent attempts being Papo’s first, and so far only, bat figure, released in 2018, which is also the subject of this review.
