Tito swallows the last bit of fish. “I was still hungry,” he says. “Agoutis are small. Not much meat on them.” He looks up in the tree. “There are some yummy-looking figs up there. I wish we could reach them. They’d make a great dessert.”

I don’t know what a fig is. But I do know what yummy means. So I look up in the tree, too.

Wiggle, waggle, weird. Suddenly I’m staring right into the face of another dog. Except this dog is hanging upside down from a tree branch.

“How do you do that?” I ask the upside-down dog.

But the upside-down dog doesn’t answer.

“Doesn’t it hurt your paws?” I bark, a little louder this time.

The upside-down dog spreads his wings and flies away.

Wiggle, waggle, wait a minute. Wings? Flying?

“What kind of dog is that?” I ask the bush dogs.

Eduardo laughs. He shakes his head.

“He says that’s not a dog. It’s a bat,” Tito explains.

“A bat?” I repeat. “What’s that?”

“It’s kind of like a bird, because it flies,” Maria explains. “But it doesn’t lay eggs.”

“It sure had a dog face,” I say.

“I guess that’s why it’s called a bulldog bat,” Anahi explains.
