Winged skeleton of EONYCTERIS S.
AN453
Delicate and precise in the same time but also... a little scary: the presentation of a skeleton of a small eonyctere, an Indonesian bat, in its own winged skin. This large fox-headed bat is nectarivorous. It therefore plays an important role in the pollination of banana, Durian and other trees in the Indo-Pacific area. Despite her large teeth, she is vegetarian. She spends her days in caves sometimes in groups of several thousand individuals. A display that combines taxidermy and osteology.
