    Northern wingless fruit bat

    I think I have discovered a new species. Looking over the fence in the dog pen I located this: A little internet research located a similar looking species. Yup. I have a wingless fruit bat.

    Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.

    Remarkable!
    Looking at those teeth the poor fruit don't stand a chance either.

    Be careful. they might declare the whole region a National Park or something.

    For goodness sake don’t eat one! Especially one 3 days old and under cooked.

    I am guessing the real bat makes less noise.

    The winged variety make a damn racket and stink beyond belief. You can smell them and hear them 100's yards away

    Just don't feed it ever.

    It'll follow you home and you'll never get rid of it

    That pup is a cute little guy. A good dog or cat around sure makes staying home all the time better, I feel bad for people whose living situation doesn't allow pets.
