    Vampire bats and humans

    Vampire bats in Peru are increasingly biting people, and a National Geographic researcher is trying to find ways to stem the resulting spread of deadly rabies.

    Now I know why Nosferatu, in the vintage vampire film had peculiar fangs replacing his front teeth rather than the canines like the more recent vampires. Less attractive but modeled on the vampire bat!
