Giant Golden Crowned Flying Fox

The Giant Golden Crowned Flying Fox(Acerodon jubatus), an endangered megabat, is the largest living bat in the world. It lives in the Philippines and its wings are so long that they are usually seen with their wigs wrapped around the body. Its wingspan is 1.5–1.7 m and it weighs 0.7–1.2 kg (1.5–2.6 lb).

Like all other fruit bats, the Giant Golden Crowned Flying Fox feeds on fruit. It hunts in the night and they may travel as much as 25mph while searching for food. They also like to take long baths, using their wings to scoop up water and wash over themselves.
