Happy International Bat Appreciation Day! 🦇 Meet our star of the day, the Malayan flying fox! With a wingspan of up to 1.7 metres, they are one of the largest bats in the world. At Singapore Zoo and Night Safari, you might get to see them in action in their exhibits — swooping close as they flap by, and hanging upside-down to feast on their favourite fruits. But in the wild, Malayan flying foxes are under threat due to deforestation and overhunting. As fruit-loving pollinators, these gentle bats play a crucial role in our forests.
