Batsplosions happen sometimes. It's one of those mysteries of the game. I see them periodically in my forts.

Some whisper that it's a sign that Batman has investigated your map.  :P

Ooh, this happened to me a while ago. I'd just started digging a hole in the ground for my dwarves to sleep in and a shat load of bats started pouring out... While the entrance was completely surrounded by kittens. All-out slaughter ensued.

I got the last moments in a movie here: http://mkv25.net/dfma/movie-1040-batsplosion

No matter what you do, do not let them near your belfry.
I hear that would be a Bad Thing.

You see, booze is a parasite. It lives off dwarves and compels them to dig into the ground so as to create massive defences to protect it's self. It really shouldn't be called dwarf fortress, Booze fortress would make much more sense.

Bats are vermins, so their lifespan is quite short. Also just a note: They are living in chasms, so you probably had a chasm on your map.
