Hi Hollie, as you state this bat is found in the rainforests of Asia but your map shows it in Florida.
We have a number of rules here. You may only post here pictures which you have taken yourself and the habitat should state the habitat where you saw it. If it was in a zoo or similar establishment you need to say so and state the name of the establishment, and also add it to the captive animals mission.
The map pin should show the precise location, this can be done by dragging and dropping in the edit mode. Finally, the scientific name field should only shoe the valid scientific name which consists of Genus and species. Order and Family names can be added in the description or notes sections.
Please correct this spotting using the "Edit this spotting" button.
