Madagascan rousette of the genus "Rousettus", these bats reside within cave roosts, suggesting the use of echolocation. These bats are a part of a larger group of fruit bats within "Rousettus" which consists of 10 different species. The Madagascan rousette primarily resides on western Indian Ocean islands. The habitat of the Madagascan rousette is generally found to be associated with forests. They will roost well beyond the time of twilight. Many roosts have been found within caves however some bats have been found without a known cave roost, suggesting that the Madagascan rousette may sometimes roost within tree holes or other alternatives.
Daubenton's bat also always near water. Daubenton's bat hibernates in the same type of locations from September to late March or April. Daubenton's bat is insectivorous and uses echolocation to find prey and orient itself at night. Bats emit sounds too high in frequency for humans to detect, and interpret the echoes created to build a "sound picture" of their surroundings. Daubenton's bat emits echolocation calls at frequencies between 32 and 85 kHz, though typical calls peak at 45 to 50 kHz; the calls have a duration of 3.3 ms. The bats emerge at twilight to hunt for insects over the water.
