Wat een intrigerend dier. Moet bekennen dat ik van deze speciefieke soort nog nooit had gehoord. Ben zelf fan van de reuzen kahlong (vosvleermuis). Maar dit ras is ook bijzonder interessant.

I always thought the sound came from frogs, or salamanders. I was amazed to learn it is coming from them.
I want to overcome my fear of bats. Can you tell me if I have any justifiable fears? I see them flying around at dusk and they come surprisingly close. Why is that?
