I'm not sure I understand that sentence of yours, but when the Bible says that rabbits chew their cud, and that's clearly not the case, I'd say you've a case of Biblical errancy on your hands.
Bats appear to creep. "Walking on all fours" must've been a figure of speech. The bible had to be written for people to understand.
But I don't understand. How can creatures with two or six legs walk on all fours? And if the Bible were really written with clarity (and not accuracy) as its main goal, how come its chock full of all sorts of unclear peculiarities (like the origins of the wives of Cain and Abel)?
Leviticus was a rulebook to tell people how to live. People were told that it's OK to eat animals that chewed their cud. People thought that rabbits chewed their cud, the bible had to tell them not to eat rabbits because the way they chewed might have fooled the people. The bible had to be written for people to understand.

Abel had a wife? Cain's wife came from the sixth time period creation. Adam was created in the eighth time period. The bible was written so that only those that had ears to hear would hear. It wasn't meant for everyone. Obviously, it wasn't meant for those that can't apply common sense.
