In God's original creation, bats, lampreys, and finches were not blood-feeders, but instead ate plants, water plants, and possibly pollen or nectar. Due to mankind's rebellion and sin, this idyllic condition did not last, as all of creation was placed under the Curse. Sometime after the Fall, these creatures became omnivorous, carnivorous, parasitic, and/or insectivorous, and then gradually started incorporating blood into their diet opportunistically, and in some cases became obligate sanguinivores. The truly spooky thing about these bloodsuckers is that mankind is responsible for their being here. |
