Some of our hand raised big brown and eastern red bats getting some much needed exercise in our outdoor flight enclosure. We have a few adult and mother bats with their juvenile pups to help encourage and teach our hand raised pups how to be a bat. This is where they begin their journey toward independence from their human caretakers and start socializing with many other bats in preparation for release. #pabatconservationandrehabilitation #pabatconandrehab #easternredbat #bigbrownbat #lasiurusbo

With a wingspan of more than a meter, the grey headed flying fox is the largest fruit-eating #bat in the world. They hang upside down in the trees, clinging on with ratchet like claws, which help them stay attached to the branches, and wrapping their large, elastic wings around themselves. 🦇 | Love Nature
