Smol Fuzzball Of A Baby Bat Celebrates Birthday (Video)

Celebrating a birthday is so fun and exciting! Especially when you are a smol fuzzy bat being taken care of like royalty and even hand-fed for extra ease.  Bats often get overlooked for how neat they are. Apart from just being adorable, they also consume insects which reduces the need for pesticides. Bats definitely deserve more appreciation and credit than they currently receive, but that's just our humble opinion. Today we celebrate spooky cuteness by appreciating this adorable bat and sky puppy! And for those who never understand why they're called sky puppies, after seeing this big-eyed bat, you'll understand. Also, bat children just so happened to be called 'pups.'

 "Happy Birthday Roxy! This tiny Rodrigues flying fox is a year old today. Care staff hand-reared Roxy after she was rejected by her mom. Rodrigues flying foxes are a critically endangered species whose population has increased to around 20,000 thanks to more than four decades of conservation activity." Via Oregon Zoo.
