Drops:	N/A

Spawning

Bats will randomly spawn time to time in caves in the overworld. They also need 2 air blocks (or alternatively, a top trapdoor or top slabs in the block above foot level.)

Behaviour

Bats are passive mobs. They will fly around aimlessly and can perch on ceilings. Bats are small, less than a block tall and wide. They squeak randomly. They often fly around aimlessly, tending to favor the east, and sometimes fly into lava and catch on fire. Bats hang upside down on the underside of a block when idle, though they cannot hang on transparent or non-solid blocks. If a player approaches a bat hanging upside down, even if the player is invisible, it flies away. This also happens if the player breaks the block the bat is hanging from.
