[2] It is found in eastern Sudan, north Tanzania, and south Zambia.

The heart-nosed bat typically occupies areas that are in dry lowlands, coastal strips, and river valleys.

[3] Places of interest that the bats tend to gather in the daylight hours are abandoned buildings, dry caves, or baobab trees.

Some of the most recognizable features of this species is its teeth and skull, as well as its heart-shaped nose.

The pup learns from its mother about foraging and territories that will allow them to be successful later in their life.

The prime reproduction months happen between March and June and then again between October and December.

Depending on when the sun sets, they will wake up and start making their way to their feeding zones.

The sit-and-wait strategy involves hanging from a perch and waiting until an insect comes along to be preyed upon.

[3] During the dry season, the heart-nosed bats diet primarily consists of terrestrial beetles and leaf gleaning.

However, common predators such as snakes, cats, and owls will prey on the young pups if the opportunity arises.

It is unknown if this helps increase the social bond between the bats as it would in other species.

One theory to the heart-nosed bats singing and songs are linked to how territorial they are.

Another theory is the singing corresponds to social interactions between each bat, which is why the songs themselves are unique to the individual.
