The tiny, flying creatures carry all sorts of viruses but don't get sick. How do they do that?

Special thanks to Bradley Klein for allowing us to use his bat call sounds. He's given bat walks in New York's Central Park and surrounding areas for more than a decade.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
