It wouldn't surprise me if you can have one with a permit, like most other 'wild' animals. When I was a docent with the Ft. Worth Zoo I used to take owls out to schools and show them off. One time one got out its gesses at a synagogue and flew around the rafters for what seemed like forever.

There is no way you can keep bats as pets. Maybe the flying fox but I think they evolved from a different ancestor.
On a side note... we have tiny little bats, the size of a big moth between 5-10 cm in wingspan and they are nesting behind the boards of our outside wall.
When we sit on the verandah we can see them using our verandah as an approach zone. They come flying full speed and the make a swift and sharp turn and disappear into a space, maybe half a centimeter wide , without ever hesitating.
It truly is magnificent to see.
Sometimes they get trapped in our bedroom though, and they hook on against the wall and walk their way out to a point from where they can take off and leave the room.
I think cognitive thinking in animals is severely underestimated.
