Animals with nocturnal activity during the day rest mostly on trees, less often in caves, hanging upside down. They feed on fruits, flowers, nectar and pollen. They orient themselves by sight and smell; echolocation, which bats are guided by, is rare in them. The smallest species have a wingspan of around a quarter of a metre, the largest 170 centimetres. Hummingbirds are often confused with bats, but they form a different suborder of aircraft.

The Zimbabwean government is also planning to increase the cost of licences for mining companies. Newcomers will pay five million dollars (94 million Czech crowns) for it, and those who are already mining in the country will pay one million dollars to renew their license.
