The recent post has earned another wave of interest in social media with over 108K re-tweets for the magnificent beast called the giant golden-crowned flying fox, a bat species native to the Philippines. However, it remains unclear whether the bat on the picture is actually a giant golden-crowed flying fox.
The creature is primarily lived in forested area where they consumed lots of fruits and figs.
While everyone was shocked to see the picture, one commenter from the Philippines joined the thread and confirmed that this giant bat really exist in the country.
"Heya, from the Philippines here. I can confirm this, they have a huuuuuge wingspan but the bodies are not really that big, more or less like the same body as a medium (bit smaller) sized dog. And yeah they only eat fruits, guavas most particularly. They're really gentle too," one comment read.
There are smaller ones hanging around trees and sometimes under roof eaves of some houses back in the provinces, these bigger ones hang around taller trees (but we rarely see them), at least the ones near our old house but last time I saw one in person was almost five years ago.
