Facts About The Indian Flying Fox

#DidYouKnow these facts about the Indian flying fox? 🦇 The Indian flying fox (Pteropus gigantius) or Greater Indian fruit bat gets its name from a long snout and ears, giving it a fox-like appearance. 🦇 Distributed throughout the mainland, it is the largest fruit bat and the largest flying mammal in India. 🦇 Weighing up to 1.6 kilograms, it has a wingspan extending to 1.5 metres. 🦇 It is mainly nocturnal, meaning it rests during the day and becomes active at night. 🦇 Mainly relying on fruit and nectar, these bats help in seed dispersal and pollination. 🦇 Since it lacks the ability to echolocate, the bat relies on its sense of vision and smell. 🦇 Bats are known to reside in large colonies of up to a thousand individuals at a common resting site or ‘roost’. 🦇 The bat population is declining due to rampant habitat loss and urbanisation. #bats #wildlifesos #animalfacts SUBSCRIBE NOW: https://www.youtube.com/c/WildlifeSOS...
