The CDC warned that though vampire bat populations are currently confined to Latin America, climate change could result in a northward migration of their population, possibly leading to more cases of human infection in the southern United States.
“Research suggests that the range of these bats might be expanding as a result of changes in climate. Expansion of vampire bats into the United States likely would lead to increased bat exposures to both humans and animals (including domestic livestock and wildlife species) and substantially alter rabies virus dynamics and ecology in the southern United States.”

This is saying that climate change makes it get gradually warmer….
….they just told us that climate change makes it get colder and more snow
I wish the climate scientists would all get on the same page…………….
Being Vampires they need darkness more that temperature. They hang around where they are assured constant night length. There region from 23N to 23Ssuits them. The only thing that would cause then to expand into subtropics of 23 to 35 would be an increased population and they would have to travel each year when the days start getting shorter. There numbers have been fairly stable since the Dark Ages so without further research we will not be certain of population numbers.
They want their 12 hours of sleep and need close to that of dark to search for the best food sources!
The last five researchers we sent to the Tropics to count Vampires did not return so we are also looking for volunteers. Contact 1 800 fantasy!

ROTFL…….stop using science!
Dear heavens. My wife might be a vampire? [sucking joke redacted: I am a disgusting human being, trust me]
Nosferatu was the first scary movie I can remember seeing. Hard to believe that in a decade that movie will be 100 years old.
