Are bats more closely related to whales than mice?
According to Wikipedia, bats and whales have a closer common ancestor than either do to humans or mice. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bat#Evolution
However, it is mice that are more closely related to humans, not bats, so the comic has its wires crossed on that particular fact. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euarchontoglires
