This video shows the amazing drinking and cooling technique used by the world's largest bats - the grey-headed flying fox. They dip their bodies into the water as a form of evaporative cooling. This species is listed as vulnerable, but are an incredibly important part of Australia's ecosystem as a pollinator. #flyingfoxes #australianwildlife #bats #amazing #cute #beautifulanimals

I thought the bats always sleep during daytime 😅

Haha - You are right Betty. They are always sleeping during the day, except for when they are fighting, mating, and drinking and flapping their wings due to the heat as shown in the video. They are a bit like koalas in this way. Thank you for your support and for making me laugh. :)
