Rare Golden-Haired Bat Species Found in Mizoram

Scientists have found a rare type of bat called the golden-haired tube-nosed bat in a place called Mizoram in India.

This is the 136th type of bat found in India.

The bat was found by a researcher who was studying bats in the area.

Other scientists helped to confirm that it was a golden-haired tube-nosed bat by comparing it to bats in museums and looking at its DNA.

The scientists also looked at an older bat from the same area and found that it was the same type.

This discovery shows that more research is needed in this part of India to learn about its unique animals.
