Ah, the perks of being a social creature. There's always somebatty ready to invade your bubble. 🦇🦇

Cane is a type of bat called a Variable flying fox, while Boneyard is a Malayan flying fox. Both of these bat species are social, and will live in groups. As many of us can relate to, it is important to be able to communicate when part of a group. Bats can communicate to members of their colony in a number of ways, such as through their vocalizations, scent, or body language. Cane is using his body language (wing flaps) to let Boneyard know his boundaries!

It's a huge day for Large flying foxes, as we are celebrating TWO batty birthdays! Calvin is turning 25 years old, and Beulah is turning 17. 🎉🦇

Many people may recognize both Calvin and Beulah as two of our symbolically adoptable bats! Did you know that you can spoil these birthday bats (and their buddies) with fruit, enrichment, and the VIP treatment they insist they deserve? 🦇❤

Variable Flying Fox, Chesa, is kicking off with some peach juice! 🦇🧃

Did you know that you can check in on Chesa (and the rest of her group) any time, any day? The explore.org live camera in her habitat runs 24/7! If you look closer to the evening time here in FL, you may even catch a glimpse of some of the bats flying. 🦇
