It is hard to guess what a Evening bat weights. But we have the answer:
An adult Evening bat (Nycticeius humeralis) on average weights 9 grams (0.02 lbs).
The Evening bat is from the family Vespertilionidae (genus: Nycticeius). It is usually born with about 1 grams (0 lbs). They can live for up to 5 years. When reaching adult age, they grow up to 30 cm (1′ 0″). On average, Evening bats can have babies 1 times per year with a litter size of 1.
As a reference: An average human weights in at 62 kg (137 lbs) and reaches an average size of 1.65m (5′ 5″). Humans spend 280 days (40 weeks) in the womb of their mother and reach around 75 years of age.
The evening bat (Nycticeius humeralis) is a species of bat in the vesper bat family that is native to North America. Hunting at night, they eat beetles, moths, and other flying insects.
