AfriBats Common Fruit Bat
Common Fruit Bat commented on by AfriBats Singapore9 years ago

That's an Old World fruit bat (familiy Pteropodidae) rather than a New World fruit bat (family Phyllostomidae, to which Artibeus jamaicensis belongs).

Definitely a tomb bat (Taphozous sp.) but there are a bunch of species occuring in Gujarat and I'm not familiar with the bats of India:

Brilliant footage! It seems to have the front legs spread out in order to catch any potential prey item while it's moving around.
