An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.webdatacommons.org associated with source dataset(s)

The giant vampire bat is a variety of the desmodontinae subfamily of bats and is quite distinct from its siblings. It is around 30% larger than the average common vampire bat with a wingspan that rivals that of some birds of prey. The vampire is actually no different to the common vampire bat due to genetic mutation, they both share a common ancestor as both species engage in sanguivorous habits, it is likely they only evolved once, as did all vampire bats.
