This Bat Is A Fruitbat, Look Above, Or Also Known As Megabats As They Are The Largest Type Of Bats. Fruitbats, Unlike Other Species Of Bats, Are Herbivorous And That Is Why Fruitbats Are Called "Fruitbats." Like Many Fruitbats, Giant Golden Crowned Fruitbat Mainly Eat Figs But Will Also Eat Fruit, Flowers, Leaves, Seeds And Branches. The Giant Golden Crowned Fruitbats Like To Hang Around On The Rainforest And Live In Northern Phillippines And South-East Phillippines. Giant Golden Crowned Fruitbats Are Fast And Unlike Those Stupid Myths Saying That Bats Are Blind, Giant Golden Crown Fruitbats Have Great Eyesight, In Fact, No Bat Is Blind. In Fact, The Giant Golden Crowned Fruitbat's "Crown" Is Not On The Head But On The Neck As You See The Name "Crowned" But You Can See That The "Gold" Part Is On It's Neck. The Other Parts Of It's Fur Is Mainly Black But Is Also Red.
