Bat & Man

“Our sometimes dangerous and frequently beneficial link to bats”

In this beautiful, fascinating and compelling one-hour documentary on bats Canadian biologist Brock Fenton helps us make sense of these strange and astonishing creatures: ancient mammals who possess secrets that are already starting to help humans in ways unimaginable even a decade ago. Science has only recently begun to discover that bats possess secrets of immeasurable benefit to human beings- qualities that science and medicine are now harnessing to help the blind, save victims of stroke, increase man’s overall health and longevity as well as avert disease.
