This stunning creature is a Grey-headed flying-fox. Endemic to Australia and federally listed as vulnerable to extinction, their future is looking grim due to decades of abysmal government policy and a human population desensitised to the necessity and plight of our long distances pollinators and seed dispersers of native forests. Although vulnerable to extinction, Greys are still being legally shot in both Queensland and New South Wales and there is strong suggestion that illegal shooting is ri

Although we can only see one of Miss Rainbow's ears in the video as the other one is tucked up, it is interesting to watch that ear swiveling and listening intently. Flying-foxes have excellent hearing which is used in conjunction with equally good eyesight ensuring that they are fully cognisant of their surroundings at all times. Although simple in structure compared to insectiverous microbats, flying-fox ears work as amplifiers to channel sound and the only time they aren't on active duty is w

A baby bat cannot live by milk alone and by the age of 6 to 7 weeks we begin the weaning process by introducing 'bat lollies'. Bat lollies are small cubes of well steamed, peeled apple and they are readily accepted as the first step towards independence and weaning. Although not fully weaned until around the 12 week mark, we gradually increase not only the size of the fruit offered but we also steam less and include the skin as time progresses. By 12 weeks we aim to have our orphans holding larg
