Vampire Bats/ Vampierfledermäuse/ Vampiro Murciélagos
Nightmare from the jungle
Vampire Bats attack cattle and people
Transmitting deadly rabies
When they carry the deadly virus
Some indigenous children have died
-------------------------------------------------
Albtraum aus dem Dschungel
Vampierfledermäuse im nächtlichen Angriff
Überträger der Tollwut
Wenn sie das tödliche Virus tragen
Indiokinder mussten sterben
-------------------------------------------------
Pesadilla de selva
Vampiros atacan al ganado y gente
Transmisión de rabia
Cuando ellos llevan el virus mortal
Algunos niños indígenas murieron
