https://scitechdaily.com/vampire-bats-social-distance-when-they-get-sick-slowing-disease-spread/

A new paper in Behavioral Ecology, published by Oxford University Press, finds that wild vampire bats that are sick spend less time near others from their community, which slows how quickly a disease will spread. The research team had previously seen this behavior in the lab, and used a field experi
