mexican long-nosed bats are key pollinators for several species of cactus!

“how do they get the nectar out of the flower, though?” you ask. “maybe with a long tongue, like a butterfly?”
well, that’s plausible, but INCORRECT.

see, the cactus flowers are actually larger than the bat itself!

so it just kinda. crawls in there.

and in the process gets just SO covered with pollen. absolutely lost in the sauce.

which of course, they smear all over the flowers of the next cactus over when they repeat the process. isn’t biology beautiful?

Powdered like a DONUT
