👉 The bat weapon, also known as the "bat claw" or "wingtip strike," is a specialized hunting technique used by some bat species, particularly those in the genus Nyctophilus. These bats have evolved elongated and sharp claws on the tips of their wings, which they use to grasp and manipulate insects mid-air. When hunting, these bats swoop down to catch flying prey, such as moths and beetles, and then use their sharp claws to secure the insect before consuming it. This unique adaptation allows them to efficiently capture prey that other predators might miss, making it a crucial survival tool in their nocturnal hunting strategy.
