The little long-eared bat is a small nocturnal bat that lives in Australia. It has very long ears that help it find insects using hearing and echolocation.
The little long-eared bat differs from related species by its particularly long ears. It is beneficial to nature because it eats many insects and helps maintain balance in the forests and steppes of Australia.
