WATCH: The Oregon Zoo welcomed three adorable flying fox bat babies, a species that once nearly went extinct. 🦇 DETAILS: https://bit.ly/3Go2Lq5 | The National Desk - TND

Little red flying-foxes mate and give birth six months out of sync with Black, Grey-headed and Spectacled flying-foxes. Although the majority of bat babies born in South East Queensland arrive during the summer months, Little reds leave SE Qld towards the end of summer and head north before giving birth during our autumn. We rescued Rachel the Little red flying-fox off a barbed wire fence last month and because her wing injuries prevented her from being released this season, she will be kept in

Its not often we need an arborist to help with a rescue but you can't get any better than this when you do. Thank you Lukas from Tablelands Tree Works who helped us out, even on a sunday. The young spectacled flying fox pup is now in good care at the Bat Hospital. | Tolga Bat Hospital
