[SteveCarras]

[MsFYI200]

in our country we have this freaking creature in a population of 300 in the wild ., they eat fruit and the stool is the the fertilizer in tree in its soil... and we also have "monkey eating eagle"., and the largest shit crocodile in the world (21ft long"the only one in the world) and the largest EAGLE in the world this species only found in our country.. (our weather is sunny,rainy only) i didn't even see a snow in my whole got damn life..

[machetey]

wow those are huge compared to the tiny ones in rochester

[guionlawes]

nasty fuckin' rodents!

[Echosofthemind]

I faved this JUST because of the yawning one!

[Echosofthemind]

aww they're so cute!!!

[CoolSchnitzel]

in sydney, at australia, you see these things flying all around at night.

if you go to the botanical gardens during the day, you can see them all hanging from the trees :)

[darkspinesonic200]

i went there and one tried to make a nest out of my hair!!!!

[ureadmymind]

Where can I get a pet bat?

[AnimeFaaaan]

0:18 hahah lol. cute =3

[aussie2065]

You guys are silly. These are Flying Fox, they eat fruit and blossoms, not insects but I wouldn't be surprised if they try an insect now and again. They do not have echolocation like the micro bats that's why their eyes are big. They are amazing mammals and very social.

[BlackSabbathPage]

are fruit bats blind too?

[itachihater5]

no bat is blind in day light its just a myth theyare though nocternal animal like raccons so they arnt blinded by day just fly at night when the bugs come out or there snack/lunch they can eat over 2000 bugs a night

[BlackSabbathPage]

=) thanks man =D

[DryBONESreborn]

Wouldnt' the blood rush from their heads?

[happyyoshitreehouse8]

I want to pet one!

[5ynic]

I used to be weirded out by their leathery wings, but now I think of them as super-cute mice with built-in paragliders - they're such cool mammals.

:)

[twilightfreakxox99]

they are sooooo cute

[SuperPhoenix100]

creepy........

[minxvp]

how cute !! they look so dainty !!

[somacoyote]

aw, they're adorable :3

[jumpyduck]

they arent its the lighting duh

[laughedtheboy]

Pmsl!

[Avelachim]

Its a flying fox.

[TechnicalFreak]

And all the bats are thinking: "Why are all these people upside down?!"

[helenajesstarzak]

Gosh, they are huge!

They are the most interesting animal ever!

I wish I had a bat for a pet.

My favourite animal

[jstreetohio]

It's time my enemies share my dread.

[Codeyellow07]

I'M BATMAN!!

[bubgum00]

These guys are awesome...I love, love, love bats.

[Things108]

holy crap those are big!!

[bob7399162]

One just took a shit. Adorable

[happyyoshitreehouse8]

Which one?

[RRFBINH]

A little bat kissing at 1:20!

[Zeanu]

Grahhh, they're so cute!

[YungZ905]

Does any1 think a bat can crawl down a chiminee and then knock sum stuff over by the fireplace, and then crawl on the wall and sit there. Then in 20 seconds be completely gone. is that possiible?

[IvanTH3K1NG]

In fact bats dont have eyes, they use sonar to fly around and identify their surrounding, so they don't have eyes but they are not blind.

They are like Daredevil!

[sentstuff05]

Look at its face--it has eyes. Most bats do use sonar, but NOT the "flying foxes" in this video. They can't echolocate at all and have very good vision.

[bob7399162]

idiot.

[tnic469]

What an awesome awesome video! Bats are one of my favorite animals. I want one as a pet too, but unfortunately they only live about a year in captivity. They live 20 - 40 years in the wild, so that's a no brainer, they are meant to be wild, not pets!

[marlinfan14]

Those are awsome. I want one as a pet. I have 2 little frute bats but these are AMAZING!!!

[illyillyill]

The thing that makes bats scary is that they are basically flying RATS. which is just frightning to me. I don't blam batman for hating them.

[GreenTeaHyuuga]

...Bats aren't scary. =\ Even the little ones that swoop down sometimes at dusk. They're just eating the mosquitoes flying around you. You should be thanking them! x3 [comment for Sherlock]

[wearejusthumanbeing]

there are many type of bat, fruit bat eat fruits?? and there are those that suck big animals blood with sharp teeth.

[arandomperson3]

I used to get so pissed when people said "bats are blind." and then I'd say NO YOU FUCKING RETARD. IF BATS ARE BLIND THEN WHY THE FUCK DO THEY HAVE EYES!??? and then people stopped talking to me.

[EndlessMilkyWay]

WHOA they are so big. Cute, but kind of freaky

[Sherlocksbumstead]

i miss the days when bats were feared and shit. not "adorable".

[arandomperson3]

i miss the days when you'd shut the fuck up. 'cause BATS KICK ASS! WHOOO!

[rgur90x]

Why would they be feared and other animals not? thats just stupid. youre probably one of those people who think that they turn into vampires and suck your blood at night.

[Sherlocksbumstead]

wooOOOooow. u kno, when a comment has been posted for 3 months, u'd think that faggots would stop replying to it. no, i don't think they turn into vampires, thank u very much. therefore, i am not one of "those people" who u look down on so much. in summary, **** your stupid meany-assed comments!!!!

[rgur90x]

wooOOOooow i´m SO sorry, i didnt mean to make you get a heart attack.

[tschafer204]

I live in Michigan, would i be able to get a Flying Fox as a pet?

[QceanWeaver]

um yeah this isnt a giant fruit bat - there's no such thing. you probably mean a giant flying fox bat - they also eat fruit.

[speralyoness]

I don't know the exact species, I was just going off of what the sign says at the zoo. It appears I'm being corrected by everyone :P

[Whatlander]

@speralyoness ACTUALLY, it isn't a bat at all. What you see here is the rare Cornish batterpillar - a very easy mistake to make.

Kidding aside, thanks for the upload. Whatever they are, they're cute!

[sarabitches5chloe]

@speralyoness its a flying fox, look at the head structure ( witch resembles a fox )

[TadaKiba]

@speralyoness Flying foxes ARE fruit bats. their special headshape and ears resemble foxes, and are called such as well, but they are bats.

[Zapper1234567]

well its eather a flying fox bat or a Rodregous Fruit bat but its so cute =D i want one as a pet

[Organizum]

Don't we all <3

[arandomperson3]

I know. When I was a little kid, I wanted a pet bat soooooooooooooo much. Those flying foxes are SOOOO cute. Just like cats, only with wings, and they hang upside down, and their poop makes you throw up. BUT THEIR STILL CUTE!

[battechno]

its a straw colored flying fox bat.

[RipvanX]

bats rule!

[battechno]

flying foxes are my favorite species of Bats. my favorite flying fox species is the straw colored flying fox such as these in this video. the U.S. doesn't have any of its very own flying foxbat. the only ones you can see in america are in zoos. flying foxes are also friendly.

[belladonna1999]

quite cute.much better looking than vampire bats.

[vampirebatlord4ever]

vampire bats are the cutest :p flying foxes are like their innocent llooking brethren :p lol

[vampirebatlord4ever]

still love vampire bats mor than fling foxes....but these guys are adorable to XD

[ihatelife17]

They seem to know they are amusing to look at...and are proud of their dignified looks...

[paplo8]

Bats are the best. Always wanted 1 of my own.

[ThePhantomCC]

[jillbabe1]

[sidpook]

So cool, had hundreds of these all over when i spent some time in Comoros Island.

[lanakb]
