👻Boo! Say “hi” to the ghost bat (Macroderma gigas).

🦇This critter’s name is a nod to the pale color of its fur. The Australian species lives in a range of habitats such as rainforests, tropical savannas, mangroves, and woodlands. It has a varied diet, preying on reptiles, large insects, small mammals, birds, and frogs. When on the hunt, the carnivore swoops down from above, wraps its meal in its wings, and then bites down on the head and neck.
