This video was taken with a motion-sensitive camera trap placed underneath a fruiting palm tree in Panama. A tapir walks by, feeding on the fruit. Trailing the tapir's back left foot is a vampire bat. The bat seems to have already made a small cut on the tapir's foot, and can be seen darting in to get a drink, then back out to avoid being stepped on.
...the tapir flashed the camera...
on another note, that is one sneaky bat!
