Australian volunteer bat carers raise thousands of orphaned flying-foxes each year before returning them to the wild. All flying-fox populations are in rapid decline and if not for volunteers, many more bats would die slow and painful deaths on barbed wire fences, in large aperture anti bird netting, from both legal and illegal shooting, dog and predator attacks, car hits and electrocution on overhead power lines.

Most Australian flying-fox species have specific and predictable birthing seasons but we are starting to see more and more infants born out of season. Grey-headed, Black and Spectacled flying-foxes generally give birth between October and December but we have had many March born Greys coming into care this year. We age flying-foxes by their forearm length (which continues to grow throughout their lives) and this measurement provides an accurate indication of age. Interestingly, there are reports

The grey-headed flying fox (Pteropus poliocephalus) is a beautiful yet incredibly misunderstood social mammal crucial to Australia's ecosystems. 🦇 Spending their days literally hanging about, the grey-headed flying-fox springs into action during night hours, flying up to 50km and pollinating native plants as they forage. Head to Parramatta in Sydney to see where one of Australia’s top pollinators hangs out and how #SavingOurSpecies is working to protect them: youtube.com/watch?v=JC1PD_W5zaY 🎥

It is not unusual for us to have a small number of orphans in care during the winter months. Here are Diva and Domino, two of the ten little red flying-fox orphans that our members are currently hand-raising. Domino (5 weeks of age) is shy and well-behaved compared to his ‘sister’ who is two weeks older. Diva is a hyperactive busybody who thinks she has far more important things to do than taking a nap! When they are old enough, Domino and Diva will join the other orphans in a large flight aviar

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

Yuki is an orphaned grey headed flying fox rescued from the NSW fires and drought. Grey headed flying foxes are a nationally listed vulnerable species. He was half the weight he should have been when he was first rescued but quickly started thriving in care with his carer. Yuki is now learning to fly and socialise with the other orphans. They will be released back into the wild once they build up their flight fitness and are ready for life in the wild. ~ Bats are Australia’s only long-distance p
