With fox-like faces and 1.5 m wingspans, fruit bats cruise tropical nights, scent-tracking figs, mangoes and nectar. Daylight finds them packed in noisy tree colonies that seed and pollinate whole forests—living gardeners of Africa, Asia and the Pacific.

Habitat: The Fruit Bat can be found in Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, South-africa, Madagascar, India, Thailand, Malaysia, Timor-leste, Indonesia, Philippines, China, Japan, Papua-new-guinea, Australia, Fiji
