A feast for the king! Statler is a 33 year old Indian flying fox. With his species only averaging 25 to 30 in captivity, Statler is quite remarkable. He has had a long life, and somewhere along the way lost an eye and broke a number of bones. Nowadays, he lives the retired life in a hammock with his roostmates. Statler has some arthritis which he receives a daily mild pain reliever for and also had discoloration on his wings from past injuries. #Statler #Bats #batworldsanctuary #SponsorStatler |

Starlie, the 27-year old, rescued Indian flying Fox came into the clinic today for a quick checkup (and bonus melon treats!) Needless to say, she passed her check-up with flying colors. ❤️ Volume up for batty ASMR! | Bat World Sanctuary

Meet the Pacific flying fox (Pteropus tonganus), a keystone species here in the Pacific islands! 🦇 What does a bat have to do with the coastal ocean, you might ask? Bats are among the most effective, and often the only, dispersers of many large-seeded plant species. They are critical to maintaining plant diversity in and across the islands, which in turn impacts coastal habitats above and below the water. We're sharing this Pacific flying fox in celebration of #BatWeek, an annual awareness camp
