Local bat very enthusiastic about this
I came here to say “Shakaka!”🧎♂️
this should have pictures of the shit, not of the bat...
I saw it at Bracken cave, they had a jar with it. I wouldn’t say it’s super sparkly, more like it has a cool sheen to it. Like dark eyeshadow with some glow or something.
Ay high quality bat poop picture. Perfect addition to lemmy.world admin HDD. Do you have other angles?
This is the poop of a killer, Bella
This comment just made my week.
There’s your answer fish-bulb.
Bats also have explosive poop. The crystals in bat poop make for great fireworks and gunpowder
I, too, have seen Doctor Stone
I haven't. Should give it a watch I guess.
if your need more convincing and don't mind mild spoilers,
The ability to make gunpowder from bat poo is recognised as dangerous by the antagonist, so he tries to keep the protagonist (who knows how to make guns) away from access to bat poo. The protagonist exploits this to gain the upper hand. Because there are military technologies far more dangerous than guns that he knows how to create, and misleading his enemy can only help.
True story! In Bracken cave with millions of bats, they used to mine for guano to supply the confederacy with gunpowder. Got to see it last summer.
God, pre-platypus:
Hmm, what about a ferret with a moth?
wonderful!
ok
