Yes. Bats are the only mammals capable of free flight, able to launch into flight from a still position.
There are other types of gliding mammals, such as flying lemurs (colugos), sugar gliders and numerous other varieties of glider, marsupials commonly found in Australia, and flying squirrels. These animals can glide using membranes which extend from their wrists to their elbows. Unlike bats, these animals must launch from a high point in order to glide to a lower point, covering up to 50 metres of ground. This is useful for jumping large distances between trees.
