Madagascan flying fox (Pteropus rufus)
The Madagascan flying fox is the largest of Madagascar’s three endemic species of fruit bat. The common name derives from the long pointed muzzle and ears that give the face a distinctive, ‘fox-like’ appearance. The body is brown with darker tones on the back and lighter, golden to reddish-brown tones on the chest and shoulders. The face, crown and nape are also light and more yellowish in colour, and the wings are slate-grey to black. As with almost all species of Pteropodidae, there is no obvious tail. |
