In a scene that could come straight out of Alfred Hitchcock's imagination, about 100,000 bats were found littering the ground after a major heatwave hit Australia this week, causing the bats to fall from the sky and die upon impact. In addition to the bats, the heatwave—which struck the north-east state of Queensland earlier this week and hit temperatures as high as 135 degrees fahrenheit—meant mass deaths for the country’s flying foxes across an estimated 25 colonies. http://www.alternet.org/environment/100000-bats-fall-sky-australia-due-extreme-heat-wave?akid=11386.1132283.twjCvo&rd=1&src=newsletter945370&t=5 -- “Disobedience, in the eyes of anyone who has read history, is humanity’s original virtue.
