I wonder how people control these bats (since its like a pest to them) without endangering thier species. Sure vampire bats have purpose in the ecosystem.

There are many species that are considered pests, but that are still easily able to not get endangered, such as rats and many species of birds. I don't know the speficics of how people hunt/kill the vampire bats, but all three species are considered *Least Concern* by the IUCN Red List, so they are at least doing fine for the moment. 

Thanks for taking the time to comment, @s3carlo!
