OP Well, see, Faldage, that's what's bothering me. If you look at all those so-called species of bats, they just look like bats the way dogs look like dogs.
I realize completely that the Great Dane is a breed and that the Scottish terrier is another breed, but they look as unalike as a couple of species of bats. In fact, some of those species of bats look more alike than some breeds of dogs. Think about a collie and a chihuahua, or however you spell chihuahua.
So is it that, yes, some species of bats could conceivably produce baby bats, and, yes, sometimes those bats could conceivably reproduce more baby bats, but sometimes bats can breed and produce bats that can't breed, so, therefore, bats are species and dogs remain dogs that breed like rabbits?
