#DailyBat The Buettikofer's Epauletted Fruit Bat

They get mixed up with the hammerhead fruit bat, both having huge heads, but they’re different and also a littler smaller. The males also don’t honk like the hammerhead fruit bats I don’t think lol. They’re just gentle fruit eating creatures

#DailyBat: Grey headed flying Fox

#Dailybat: The Spectacled Flying-fox
