Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that bats are the only mammals that can fly?

Yes. Multiple reference works and a peer-reviewed paper state that bats are the only mammals capable of true flight, with squirrels only gliding. The claim is directly supported at the strength asserted.
