Greater long-nosed bat

[3] Loss of teeth and dental ridges indicate accurately that their diet does not necessitate biting and chewing.

[6] They roost primarily in caves and mines, but can also be found in unoccupied buildings, hollow trees, and even sewers.

[6] While it has been alleged that the bats are found as far south as Guatemala,[8] the IUCN disputes this notion, and lists its southernmost occurrence as central Guerrero.

[1] Little research has focused on reproduction in this species, but there are speculations based on this limited body of work.

Mating occurs in November and December in Cueva del Diablo, which coincides with the greatest availability of food around the cave.

[6] Birth likely occurs during May, during female migration to northern Mexico or the southwestern United States.

[15] This species is highly opportunistic, rotating its dietary selection as different plants come into bloom.

[6] PCCM has been valuable in conducting censuses of the greater long-nosed bats in Cueva del Diablo.

[6] To reduce vandalism in Cueva del Diablo and promote appreciation of bats, PCCM created a series of children's books, educational activities, and TV reports.
