Rain Forests have been destroyed in order to grow cattle farmers, agribusiness and urban activities. Conservation strategies understand the tropical ecosystems depend on bats for their reforestation as they are important seed dispersing animals in Tropical Rain Forests. Bats are more important than birds as primary pollinators of many tropical plants. Several economic products depend on bats pollinator as peach, banana, manufactured and industrial products. Pollination, seed dispersal and maintenance of genetic strains of wild progenitors depend on bats activities.
Otherwise, bats depredation on picking fruits, vampire bats and some other stories will not damage the positive bats activities.
