Life - The world's largest gathering of fruit bats - BBC One

That is correct. No one actually counts them. There are methods of estimation, but the results they give usually look more like "between 6 million and 18 million" with a certain confidence limit. So it would have been more accurate to say: "there are over X bats".

UFOIST - No one counts them. There are averages taken from bats flights by counting how many in one square foot (or something similar) of space and then using math to get a approximate number.

Not horrible. Bats are pretty docile and friendly creatures, compared to most wild animals. Only problem is that some of them can spread diseases.

Fantastic film work as always from the BBC. I'm a great fan of the eminent Sir David Attenborough but his claim that, "There are 10 million of them here" is a bit optimistic inho - who counted them?
