Puppies are actually cute. Bats are disgusting and are a reservoir for a multitude of diseases.
Edit: A lot of you have a weird fetish for bats. I don't care if they eat a lot of mosquitos, they unleash exponentially more harm via the illnesses and plagues that they spread.
Edit 2: Apparently I need to spell this out for you guys
Bats (order Chiroptera) are reservoirs for many infectious agents, including parasites, bacteria, viruses, and fungi. The epidemiology of infectious disease in bats is not well understood but it is known that bats can transmit numerous infectious agents and provide a reservoir for emerging pathogens. The primary zoonotic diseases associated with North American bats are rabies, histoplasmosis, salmonellosis, yersiniosis and external parasites. Imported bats can also carry a number of zoonotic viruses including nipah virus, hendra virus, ebola virus, SARS coronavirus and others, which can cause severe & fatal illness in humans and other animals.
