Episode 18 - Vampires But Less Fanfiction This Time

The boyzzz sit down and lick eachother's necks for a little while, mimicking the behavior of their favorite animal: the vampire bat. According to Wikipedia, The common vampire bat was first classified as Phyllostoma rotundum by Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire in 1810.[2] The species received several scientific names before being given its current one—Desmodus rotundus—by Oldfield Thomas in 1901.[2] It is classified under the subfamily Desmodontinae along with two other species: the hairy-legged vampire bat (Diphylla ecaudata), and the white-winged vampire bat (Diaemus youngi). These three species compose the "true" vampire bats, as opposed to the "false" vampires of the family Megadermatidae and the spectral bat. All three species of Desmodontinae specialize in feeding on the blood of warm-blooded animals.[3] However, the common vampire bat feeds on mammalian blood more than the other two species, which primarily feed on that of birds.[4][5] The three species resemble each other, but the common vampire bat can be distinguished by its longer thumb.[4] It is the only extant member of its genus, although other fossil species have been described.
