Sagitar Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 It could be a Bismarck flying fox or one of its close relatives. They are big fruit bats from Australia, New Guinea etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted August 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 I've seen images/ films over the years and seen the flying fox, i've always thought they were a good looking animal but this thing looks dam scary. It's got a mouth like a leach in fact it looks like it could suck the colour off a snooker ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffers Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Hammer headed bat apparently. Original image HERE The hammer-headed bat (Hypsignathus monstrosus), also known as the big-lipped bat, is a megabat widely distributed in equatorial Africa. This large bat is found in riverine forests, mangroves, swamps, and palm forests at elevations less than 1,800 metres (5,900 ft) Wikipedia article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
