Western Sucker-footed Bat → Western sucker-footed bat – -> sentence case mammal species common name as specified in WP:MOS. WolfmanSF (talk) 08:14, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support While WikiProject Birds treats species names as proper nouns, this is contrary to other practices within and without Wikipedia. --BDD (talk) 18:37, 27 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Despite the fact that a bat can fly they are not actually birds but mamals so that WikiProject does not even apply.
