The 'Ope'ape'a also known as the Hawaiian Hoary Bat is generally a reclusive and solitary animal. This is in contrast to many bat species around the world that share expansive communal roosts in caves. This makes population counts very difficult, and much is still unknown about this nocturnal insect eating creature. The 'Ope'ape'a is a federally listed Endangered Species.
