Why do bats sleep upside down?

During the long evolution, the hind limbs of bats have become very small, so bats cannot walk and can only crawl on their forelimbs, which makes them slow and clumsy. Because of their short hind limbs, they cannot jump either. If they encounter danger while sleeping, they cannot take off directly like birds. Therefore, a bat cannot fly by taking off directly. It has to glide at a high altitude before it can fly.

If bats build their nests on the ground and sleep upright, they will be eaten by their natural enemies without any chance of fighting back, let alone escaping. Therefore, bats choose to rest in high places, so that they can avoid their natural enemies and take off quickly. In addition, bats' skin is very sensitive and it will be uncomfortable if it rubs against something. It's different when hanging upside down. Except for your toes grabbing something, there is air all around you, and you don't have to worry about hard objects scratching your wings.
