Food and Feeding. The Woolly False Vampire Batis primarily carnivorous and eats a wide variety of birds, including doves, ant shrikes, tanagers, solitaires, and warblers; some gekkonid lizards; mammals such as mouse opossums, shrews, and mice; and smaller bats. It also eats fruits, cerambycid and scarabeid beetles, and sphingid moths. It uses acoustic cues emitted by prey such as shuffling through the forest floor, gnawing,etc. After capturing prey, the Woolly False Vampire Bat wraps it in its wing membranes,locks it with thumb claws, and delivers a killing bite, typically on top or back of head or throat. Prey is usually consumed from the head down, discarding bony areas such as wings, feathers, beaks, and parts of internal organs such as intestines and stomach. As a foliage-gleaning carnivore, the Woolly False Vampire Batrelies on relatively undisturbed forests to survive.
