  • Even by a mother's high standard of care, this flying fox gives a remarkable display of devotion, as she gently fans her little baby - all while hanging upside down on a branch.

      @Diogenes thehorsefan Isn't it gutting that we know IF we were obscenely wealthy, we'd be genuinely thrilled to fund a bat rescue/hospital. What better crusade could there be, than to add financial might to the fight to save the beautiful, intelligent, noble flying fox/microbat from extinction??? That's my view.
      Alas at this point in my life I'm hoping for a big lottery win - and I don't even do the lottery! But rest assured, if riches ever come my way, I'll be redirecting megabucks to Megabattie and her furry friends.

    These little guys (flying fox/fruit bat, the only flying mammal) live in colonies in Australia, Philippines, and some parts of Asia and Africa. They can grow to massive sizes and come in different colours. They live only on fruits and raise their babies for up to 6 months at a time and are not eco locators like the vampire bats, they rely on eyesight. Depending on the area their predators are hawks, crocodiles, and other large birds of pray. However they are accident prone in urban areas due to their strict restrictions of take off, making them get trapped in city areas easily resulting in injury or starvation. They live together in trees and typically fly at night to look for fruit and water.
    However they are bound to be extinct in 20 years due to lack of food and deforistation.
    Flying foxes cannot stand upright nor walk as their hips and legs and feet are backwards. They sleep, eat, mate, birth, all hanging upside down.
    They can be prone to disease such as the rabies virus, it is very rare but possible. If you get scratched or bitten by a flying fox that has the virus in its brain, it can be transmitted to you. So it is highly recommended not to touch them unless you have been vaccinated.
    If you ever find a flying fox that is trapped or injured there are many wildlife carers you can call that will rescue the bat.

    • @TechnicolorMammoth

    If you see a flying fox (or any other bat) in the wild, do not touch - call your local bat rescuer. If you are scratched by the flying fox, the flying fox will unfortunately have to be euthanized to test for diseases. If you're interested in learning more, Megabattie and Batzilla are both excellent RUclips channels with lots of videos of bat rescues, raising baby bats in care, and releasing them back to the wild.

      I am a vet tech. They do not have to be killed. It takes exactly 10 days from start to finish when they first come in contact with rabies until their last day. I keep hearing all these people say oh no… The incubation time could be blah blah blah ...no it can't!! If the animal dies within a 10 day. Then you have your answer. If it does not die within the 10 days you're good!
