Vampire bats rarely bite people, instead preferring to feed on animals like cows and horses.

At Regeneron ISEF, three teens debuted an infrared system to detect honeybees carrying mites. It can show beekeepers when a colony needs to be treated.
All the species in an ecosystem and the feeding relationships between them get summed up with this handy picture.
