Buddy!
live reaction: "...That's a frugivorous species, a fruit bat, of the Artibeus genus. not a carnivorous bat. might have a nose leaf and sharp teeth but they're not like a Chrotopter- oh, it's pregnant."
congrats to the lil'bat, and blessings upon the even lil'er bats!

Bringing you the great fruit-eating bat because this image in particular has brought me and my friends a lot of joy over time!

Thank you for sharing.
meanwhile, the IRL version
IMO spectral bats sit either in the middle of weaver-z's Bat Appearance Graph, or have a significant rightward lean because of their dog-like face.
The moment they open their jaws and reveal those fangs, though, they zip into solid 'Those Feratu' territory. Or, that just solidifies their position of being in the middle of the graph.
Spectral bat collection pics. because they're fucking sublime.
