A giant flying fox with an impressive five-foot wingspan was spotted in Surli Kalyanpura village, Shahpura, Bhilwara district of Rajasthan, creating a mix of panic and curiosity among villagers. The fox-faced bat, approximately three feet long, was found crawling on the ground, likely disoriented after hitting an electric wire. A forest department team quickly arrived to rescue the bat and took it into custody, assuring locals that the species is not dangerous to humans. These bats, found across the Indian subcontinent, feed on fruits, nectar, and pollen, though they may hunt small animals at night. Leopard in Rajasthan: Big Cat Enters House in Dungarpur Village, Rescued After 2-Hour Operation (Watch Video).
